First of all, it only used a slightly changed chassis of the M3 Lee car. The M4 Sherman was developed as the successor to the M2 and M3 tanks, although it used many of the latter's components. The vehicle was armed with - depending on the version - a single 75mm M3 cannon or a 76mm M1 cannon or a 105mm M4 howitzer and two 7.62mm Browning1919A machine guns. The M4 Sherman was powered by a single engine version of the M4A1 Continental R 975 C4 with a power of 400 hp.
In total, about 49,000 copies of this tank of all versions were created, which makes it one of the most produced tanks of the Second World War and the most important tank in the equipment of the Allied armies during this conflict. The first prototypes were built in 1941, and serial production was carried out in the period 1942-1945. Just be sure to remove any paint before adding pieces painted separately.The M4 Sherman was an American medium tank from the Second World War. Some parts need a little cleanup, but they fit tightly so glue isn't required. The tracks on my daughter's Sherman have begun to disintegrate and are tearing apart. The decals went down like paint and disappeared under a single coat of matte, but the one piece rubber band tracks concern me. There were no problems during construction at all. Odd choices, I know.ĭuring assembly I chose to remove the spare tracks links from the from slope, delete the turret antenna, remove the oddly shaped and unidentifiable thing from the turret roof, and move the antenna base to the back engine deck. A base coverage of Israeli Sand Grey with Green Brown and U.S. But that's just me I suppose lol.įor this artsy little project I went with some colors that are more artistic choice (because I liked the artwork) than accurate. My biggest regret is that they don't come with any cartoons figures to go with them. These are fun little kits and great for decompressing, practicing skills, or if you're just simply new or recently returned to the hobby. I'm sure many of you are aquatinted with these fun, cartoons little kits.
