Overview
The Tamiya 1/35 US M4A3 Sherman 105mm Howitzer recreates the assault support variant of America's iconic medium tank. Instead of the standard 75mm or 76mm gun, this Sherman mounted a powerful 105mm howitzer designed for bunker busting and close infantry support. The large-caliber weapon made it invaluable for reducing fortifications during the advance across Europe.
This detailed kit captures the distinctive turret with its 105mm howitzer and the reliable M4A3 hull with its Ford GAA engine.
