Tamiya 32519 1/48 scale US M10 Mid Production model overview

The M10 served as the US Army's purpose-built tank destroyer in the second world war, using the Sherman running gear with an exposed turret and a 76.2mm cannon. Appreciated for battlefield mobility, it operated in multiple theatres including North Africa and Europe. This 1/48 rendition from Tamiya captures the vehicle's silhouette and interior cues in a compact format that suits display cabinets and dioramas.

Assembly points and model highlights

This kit recreates the M10's angled hull plates and the distinctive turret profile at 1/48 scale. The open turret gives model makers access to the gun breech and crew area, while the parts set includes both solid press-type road wheels and perforated variants to match different production runs.

Included extras mirror field equipment used on the M10: U.S. style jerry cans, an M2 heavy machine gun, and three marking choices for authentic finishes. The kit offers scope for light customization while remaining faithful to the original vehicle.
