Product Description

[1:32 55905 US Army M4A3 (75) Sherman 1943 Mainland Training Vehicle (VVSS)]
――The M4A3 is equipped with a GAA liquid-cooled V8 engine developed by Ford for tanks from the diversion of the aircraft engine up to that point, and has better maintainability and low-speed torque than the M4 and M4A1 air-cooled radial engines. It was given priority to the US military as a main tank because it was the most popular of all engines.
――The number of units sent to other countries during the war was extremely small, but after the war it became a surplus and was provided in large quantities.
――For the first time, a late model body with a single plate of front armor and a wet ammunition storage was adopted, and it was manufactured at the Detroit Tank Arsenal and the Grand Blank Tank Arsenal.
--Since it is a latecomer to the M4 tank series, there are relatively few early model vehicles manufactured by Ford (the front armor of the vehicle body excluding the front part of the left and right sponson is a combination of three plate-shaped cast armor) (1,690 vehicles), mainly Used for training on the mainland.
――This product reproduces the vehicle for mainland training in 1943.
