Tamiya 35250 - 1/35 M4A3 Sherman 75mm Frontline Breakthrough Military Model Kit - Collector Version  [35250]

Tamiya 35250 1/35 M4A3 Sherman 75mm - Scale Model of a WWII Workhorse

The Tamiya 35250 kit portrays the M4A3 Sherman in its late 1944 service configuration, a platform that played a key role in Allied counterattacks such as those during the Battle of the Bulge. The kit is intended for modellers who want a faithful representation of period armour.

Period Engineering and Protection Features

This Sherman is shown with the standard 75mm gun and the Ford V8 450hp powerplant that contributed to its operational range. The model also indicates the sloped front hull with 63.5mm frontal plating and the wet stowage system that reduced the risk of internal fires.

Model Features and Display Value

At 1/35 scale the kit reproduces the cast turret shape and welded hull sections. Builders can choose hatch configurations, two styles of road wheels and sprockets, plus rubber padded tracks. The inclusion of three crew figures and a commander offers ready-made staging for dioramas.

Diorama Possibilities

Combine this model with other US vehicle kits such as the M8 Greyhound or a 2.5-ton 6X6 truck to assemble convincing late war scenes that reflect unit action and support elements.
