U.S. Assault Tank M4A3E2 "Jumbo"
Item No：35139
【 A Rather Hefty Sherman 】 The M4 Sherman was the a mainstay of Allied armor units throughout WWII and over 50,000 examples were produced. Many variants were created to meet specific battlefield requirements and among these was the M4A3E2, known to infantrymen as the "Jumbo," which was produced in 1944 to meet requirements for a heavily armored assault tank capable of close infantry support. Armor protection on the front and sides of the hull were increased to 101mm and 76mm respectively. The new cast turret featured 152.4mm side armor, a 178mm thick mantlet, and mounted a 75mm M3 gun. Its powerplant was a powerful Ford V8 engine which pumped out 500hp. Production of the M4A3E2 began in May 1944, with 254 units being delivered by July.
