M4A4 Sherman tank with 60 lb. rocket launcher. 1/35 Dragon-6405

Description

The M4A4 Sherman tank with 60-pound rocket launcher was a variant of the iconic U.S. medium tank used during World War II. The M4A4, one of the many versions of the Sherman tank, was equipped with a Chrysler multi-bank engine, which gave it considerable power, although it was also more complex to maintain. This specific variant of the M4A4 was adapted to carry 60-pound rocket launchers, known as “Tulip”, on the sides of its turret. These rocket launchers were originally used by Royal Air Force aircraft and were adapted to provide additional support for ground operations, especially against enemy fortifications and troop concentrations. The use of the Sherman M4A4 with 60-pound rocket launchers was implemented primarily by British forces in the European theater of operations. The rocket-launching capability provided the tank with additional versatile firepower, expanding its role on the battlefield beyond traditional armored combat. Characteristics of the model:

• 3D parts
