This 1/48 scale model recreates the M4A3E8 Sherman “easy Eight” as it appeared in the European Theater of WWII. As it was one of the final Sherman types, it had the benefit of design updates developed from battle experience including a hardy welded late production hull, 76mm main gun, and new Horizontal Volute Spring Suspension (HVSS) with wider tracks, making for the significantly more comfortable ride that led to its nickname of “Easy Eight.”
