The Academy 13279 1/35 M36B1 GMC recreates a prominent World War II tank destroyer with realistic proportions. Equipped conceptually with the 90mm gun, the real vehicle was valued for its anti-armour capability and this kit reflects that heritage for modelling projects.
The M36B1 resulted from mating the M36 turret to a Sherman hull, giving crews improved firepower without a complete redesign. The kit replicates that hybrid layout so builders can show the vehicle's practical battlefield form.
Parts are finely detailed, so careful trimming and test-fitting are important. Modelmakers can add washes, streaking and rust effects to give the finished M36B1 an authentic service-worn appearance suitable for shelves or scale scenes.
