1/72 M4A3 76(W)
Trumpeter 1/72 M4A3 76(W) is a plastic kit of the American Sherman medium tank armed with a 76 mm gun. The small scale suits both a collection and a diorama. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
The M4A3 was the Sherman version powered by the Ford GAA petrol engine. The 76(W) variant carried the more powerful 76 mm M1 gun and wet ammunition stowage in liquid-surrounded bins, which reduced the risk of fire after a hit. The US Army fielded these tanks in the final stage of World War II.
The Trumpeter kit in 1/72 scale depicts the Sherman with the turret for the 76 mm gun and a machine gun on the turret roof. The compact model takes up little space in a display cabinet and combines well with other 1/72 vehicles in a shared diorama.
The olive drab finish of US tanks is a good subject in 1/72 for subtle detail highlighting and light weathering. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
Nationality: USA. Period: World War II.
