M1 Super Sherman 1:35 Tamiya 35322

Plastic military model kit: M1 Super Sherman 1:35 Tamiya 35322

A plastic model kit depicting the Israeli M1 Super Sherman main battle tank in 1:35 scale. After the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, the core of the armored forces consisted of M4 Sherman machines obtained from demobilization. In the 1950s, in order to combat the Arab T-34/85s, Israel introduced M4A1 tanks armed with a 76 mm M1 cannon into service. To distinguish them from older versions with a 75 mm gun, they were named M1 Super Sherman.

The model is characterized by high attention to detail, developed based on documentation and inspection of a museum exhibit in Latrun. The set faithfully reproduces the characteristic features of this version, including the rounded cast hull and the VVSS (Vertical Volute Spring Suspension) suspension.

• Precisely reproduced cast hull with steel texture.
• Late type turret with a 76 mm gun equipped with a muzzle brake and a loader's hatch.
• Detailed VVSS suspension.
• T54E1 type tracks made in the form of flexible belts, which facilitates assembly while maintaining realism.
• The set includes two crew figures (commander and loader) in the form of half-figures.

• Total length: 210 mm
• Width: 75 mm
• Scale: 1:35
