American M4A3E8 Sherman Easy Eight
Tamiya models release the WW2 American M4A3E8 Sherman easy eight in 1/35 scale. The U.S. M4 Sherman tank was undoubtedly one of the symbols of WWII, deployed in great quantities and numerous variants to counter the potent threat of German armor. One such variant was the M4A3E8, which was one of the final Sherman types and thus had the benefit of design improvements developed from experience in battle. These included a hardy welded late production hull, plus the welcome addition of the 76mm main gun.
