M4A3 Sherman in Scale With Authentic Lines

The Tamiya 48212 1/35 R/C U.S. M4A3 Sherman brings a compact but detailed version of the classic tank into hobby collections. The shell captures the vehicle profile and key fittings such as the 105mm howitzer, giving a convincing appearance both on display and on the move.

Accurate Control via 2.4GHz Radio

The included 2.4GHz control system provides stable link and easy operation without crystal swapping. Drivers can perform forward and reverse moves, fine turning, turret spin and gun elevation with confidence, while the prebuilt gearboxes and type 130 motors deliver dependable movement for practical driving sessions.

Battle Ready Systems and Visual Feedback

The model's infrared battle system adds interaction for group play. The MC-06 Control Unit simulates engine issues, slows the vehicle when hit and forces gun depression, while the LED muzzle flash and rear status lamps make hits visible. You can also fit the land mine simulation unit for more varied scenarios.
