Tamiya 1/35 M36 Tank Destroyer Model Kit

The M36 Jackson was the most powerful US tank destroyer of WWII, mounting the 90mm M3 gun in an open-topped turret on the M10A1 chassis. Arriving in Europe in late 1944, it was the only US vehicle that could reliably engage Tigers and Panthers at normal combat ranges. The M36 proved critical during the Battle of the Bulge when German heavy armor threatened to overwhelm lighter-armed American forces. Tamiya's 1/35 kit features the distinctive large turret with 90mm gun and counterweight.
