This versatile AFV was developed largely to give U.S. forces a potential counter to the German armor tactics which proved successful in the early stages of WWII. It utilized the successful M4A2 Sherman chassis with diesel powerplant, and mounted the 76.2mm gun in an open-top rotating turret; the hull featured extensive use of sloped armor, kept thin so as not to hinder maneuverability. Bosses were used on the turret and hull to facilitate the affixation of additional armor. Around 5,000 M10s were manufactured between September 1942 and December 1943, and it featured in action across North Africa and western Europe, its 3-inch gun and excellent maneuverability making it an asset for Allied forces.\u003cbr\u003e\nAbout the Model\u003cbr\u003e\nThis is a 1\/35 scale plastic model assembly kit. ★Length: 196mm, width: 88mm. ★In-depth examination of a real M10 led to this exceptionally accurate depiction of the M10 and its sloped armor. ★Marvelous interior detail includes gun breech, sight, shell racks and more. ★Mantlet and transmission covers feature depictions of cast metal surfaces.

It had a compact, lightweight hull, automatic transmission and the first torsion bar suspension seen on U.S. armor. Its radial 9-cylinder engine at the hull rear was capable of 80km\/h maximum speed which was the highest speed among tracked vehicles during WWII. The production started in July, 1943 and the Hellcat was in service for the first time at the Italian Front in 1944. After that, this tank destroyer was deployed in the North-Western European and Pacific War theaters, notably besting the German Army tanks with super performance and firepower based on hit-and-run tactics.

Now, we are proud to announce the release of a new M36 kit with new parts except for the M2 heavy machine gun and transparent parts which were previously used in modern kits. During WWII, U.S. forces developed the M10 tank destroyer with 76.2mm gun, but it was not effective against powerful German counters such as Tiger and Panther. Perched upon the M10A1 chassis equipped with a 450hp petrol engine, the M36 employed a new open-top turret and a 90mm gun. The M36 saw the first action on the Franco-German border in October 1944, and until the German surrender in May 1945, over 1,000 M36s were deployed among 21 battalions and contributed to the Allied forces' advance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAbout the Model\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003cp\u003eThis is a 1\/35 scale plastic model assembly kit.

The M36B1 was developed to optimize the production capacity of the American industry by using the large number of available Sherman M4A3 hulls. The turret was open-topped, as on all American tank destroyers, to ensure greater visibility in combat. The effectiveness of the M36B1 is proven by its long operational service life.
