35322 Scale Israeli Tank M1 Super Sherman - Tamiya 1/35  [35322]

Over 50,000 Shermans of all of the types ended up being certainly produced during WWII. The Shermans that your IDF (Israeli Defense Force) at first procured from various sources ended up being certainly a variety of different variations featuring different hulls, turrets, suspensions, and armaments. But Israel ended up being basically in a position to negotiate the purchase of about 250 M4A1 and M4A3 Shermans from France, and these were armed with the M1A1/A2 76.2mm main gun which could better counter the Arab armies' Russian made T-34-85s. Shermans was also produced with two types of suspension system system: VVSS (Vertical Volute Spring Suspension) and HVSS (Horizontal Volute Spring Suspension). The latter offered better performance and IDF basically modified their tanks towards HVSS standard. Ergo the IDF designated its 76.2mm gun-armed HVSS-equipped Shermans as M1 Super Shermans and lots of the saw their 1st action throughout the Sinai Campaign in 1956.
