    Product details

    Background & context

    Der M4A1 unterscheidet sich vom gewöhnlichen M4 durch seine Wanne: statt geschweißter Platten ein einziges Gussstück mit den typisch runden Kanten. Über 6.000 Stück der frühen Version mit 75mm-Kanone liefen bis Ende 1943 vom Band, und genau diese Fahrzeuge gingen im Oktober 1942 bei El Alamein in britischen Händen zum ersten Mal ins Gefecht. Ab 1944 folgte die Variante mit dem neuen 76mm-Turm, der endlich Panther und Tiger auf normale Gefechtsentfernung bedrohte. An den aufgeschweißten Platten über Munitionsfächern und Fahrerplätzen erkennt man sie auf jedem Foto der Ardennen wieder.

    On the tabletop

    When building the six M4A1s in 12 mm you set the period: the early version with the 75 mm gun served at El Alamein, in Tunisia and Italy, the later one with 76 mm and welded appliqué plates belongs to 1944. The rounded cast hull sets the M4A1 apart from the standard M4. With the 75 mm you support infantry and attack positions, with the 76 mm you take on German tanks. A decal sheet is included.
