The M4 Sherman, officially the Medium Tank, M4, was the primary battle tank used by the United States and the other Western Allies in World War II, and proved to be a reliable and highly mobile workhorse, despite being outmatched by heavier German tanks late in the war.
 
Thousands were distributed to the Allies, including the British Commonwealth and the Soviet Union, in the lend-lease program. The M4 was the second most produced tank of the World War II era, after the Soviet T-34, and its role in its parent nation’s victory was comparable to that of the T-34. The tank took its name from the American Civil War General William Tecumseh Sherman.
 
The M4 Sherman’s basic chassis was used for all the sundry roles of a modern mechanized force: roughly 50,000 Sherman tanks were produced during the war, and its chassis also served as the basis for numerous other armored vehicles such as tank destroyers, tank retrievers, and self-propelled artillery.
 
The version depicted by this model is a M4A3, which was in production between June 1942 and April 1945 with a total of over 6,600 produced.  With this kit, you can assemble the M4A3 with a 75mm, 76mm, or 105mm gun, with 2 turret and 3 mantlet choices.
