M4A1 Shermans

This set includes 6 superbly detailed 12mm/1:144 M4A1 Shermans (early and late versions) and a decal sheet. 

Over 6,000 of the early version was produced from 1942 to December 1943. This was a cast hull and equipped with a 75mm main gun. It was used widely by the British at the second battle of El Alamein in 1942 and the US in Tunisia during the Torch landings and on into the Italian campaign.

Over 3,000 of the later version was produced from 1943 up to March 1945. This later variant was up gunned to the more effective 76mm main gun and often had extra armour plates welded to the sides covering the driver and co-driver positions.
