ASU35036 - Asuka Model - 1/35 M4A3(76) Sherman 'Thunderbolt VI'

Thunderbolt VI was the last in the series of Shermans commanded by Creighton Abrams, then leading the 37th Tank Battalion of the 4th Armored Division, and one of the most recognisable individual tanks of the North West Europe campaign. The M4A3(76)W paired the Ford GAA engine with the wet-stowage hull and the 76mm gun in the T23 turret, giving late-war US armoured units a meaningful improvement in anti-tank performance over the 75mm Sherman.
