Tamiya 1/48 M4 Sherman Early Prod Model Kit

Tamiya 1/48 scale model of the M4 Sherman in early production configuration. The early M4 featured the distinctive three-piece bolted nose and Continental R-975 radial engine. As the primary American medium tank of WWII, the Sherman's strength lay not in individual superiority but in massive production numbers (over 49,000 built), mechanical reliability, and excellent logistics support. The compact 1/48 scale captures the Sherman's workmanlike proportions.
