The Sherman IC Firefly represents the practical wartime solution of fitting a 17-pounder gun into the Sherman hull, allowing Allied crews to take on heavier enemy tanks at effective combat ranges in the latter stages of the war.
This Tamiya 1/48 kit captures the Fireflys essential lines and external fittings. It is aimed at modellers who appreciate compact subjects that still offer crisp surface detail and an authentic profile once finished.
The kit includes separately moulded tools and hull components to aid in realistic assembly. The die-cast chassis contributes to a solid display model. With careful painting and subtle weathering, the Firefly makes a convincing representation of WWII British armour.
