WWll TANK COLLECTION  - 43 PIECES - HIGHLY DETAILED KIT - DECALS FOR 2 VERSIONS

The M4 Sherman medium tank was undoubtedly the most widespread and used armored vehicle during the Second World War. The M4 formed the backbone of the American armored forces and was produced in numerous versions and variants. The first example to enter large-scale production was the Sherman M4A1 characterized by the rounded hull and the turret made of cast iron. The first Shermans adopted a 75 mm gun, later replaced with a high-velocity 76 mm gun. The Sherman M4A1 entered service in 1942 and went to equip the armored units of the United States Army in the first months of the war. Its real strong point, however, was its construction design. The Sherman was in fact cheap, reliable and easy to produce in large numbers.
