The M4A3 was a sub-type of the Sherman tank. It featured a welded hull and was powered by a Ford GAA engine. Its armament consisted of a 76mm cannon and a 12.7mm machine gun. This variant was mainly deployed by the US Army with only a few units sent to France and Nicaragua. A number of these tanks took part at the Battle of Bulge in December 1944.

Furthermore, the set includes accessories such as an anti-tank rifle, wooden boxes, and sleeping bags.The M3 Stuart was an American light tank that had been delivered to British forces by the US Government during WWII, before the Americans officially entered the war. Subsequently it was deployed by the Allies until the capitulation of Germany. This service does not deliver on a Saturday or Sunday. If you would like Saturday delivery please call us on 01782 409310. As the version I chose, has a 37mm Bofors antitank gun, the only thing that rests to get is the Mirage or Tom kit (Ref.#35212) since the kit is the same.

The Medium Tank M4 Sherman was commonly used by the United States and other Western Allies during WWII. The tank was produced in large numbers, with thousands distributed through the Lend-Lease program to the British Commonwealth and Soviet Union. The British called the M4 'Sherman' after the American Civil War General William Tecumseh Sherman. Continually harassing German forces behind enemy lines during WWII throughout North Africa were British and New Zealand Special Forces called the L.R.D.G. That'll do for now, happy to follow on if you like, or have specific questions. I couldn't speculate any further as to the Clansman fit, I'll no doubt be getting it wrong and incurring the wrath of those who know better.

No - I scratchbuilt the Clansman units, along with the gas cooker, mess kit and 'cardboard' boxes (actually really thin plastic card) for a bit of local colour. I like to set myself challenges from time to time and was pleased with the general outcome of the Clansman radios I built. I scaled down the actual measurements and then tried to get as close as I could to the look and feel of the real items. This is a series in exact 1/35 scale of World War II & post war vehicles, armour and figures representing armies from all over the world. It is ideal for constructing dioramas. The details on the subjects are incredible and extremely accurate right down to the expressions on the soldiers' faces.

The theodolite stand is moved from the offside wing and either goes laterally across the bonnet just in front of the netting, or has been seen running down the centre line of the bonnet. No reason why but it's easier to reach when going fore and aft rather than across. 10FG51 has it going across because that's where the old bolt holes are.radio antenna mounts on the nearside wing. You would usually see a large metal box that houses the electrically powered tuning unit with the antenna base on top of this box. This would make sense here, it keeps the antenna tuner out of the elements. But no, not this time. The antenna tuner is on its own and the antenna base mounted in front of it. There must be a really good reason for this, buggered if I know.
