M3 Stuart Light Tank

The M3 Stuart was a comprehensive upgrade of the earlier M2 light tank. It featured a new Continental, radial petrol engine - more powerful than on the preceding M2, a new vertical volute suspension system (VVSS), an M5 37 mm main gun (later replaced by the M6 37 mm gun) with a new recoil system. The secondary armament consisted of up to 5 .30 cal (7.62 mm) M1919 machine guns. 5811 M3 Stuarts were produced through March 1942, many of which were shipped to UK and the Soviet Union under the Lend Lease Act.

This model is a 1:56 scale faithful recreation of the M3 Stuart Light Tank. This model includes open and closed hatch turret options and two commander figures and a hull with sponson machine guns or without. Also included is a printing and assembly tips pamphlet for this model.
