Italeri 6761 - 1/35 M24 Chaffee: Scale Armour for Hobby Builders

The Italeri 1/35 M24 Chaffee kit gives hobby builders the pieces needed to recreate this agile WWII light tank in scale. With clearly defined panels and fittings, the model highlights the Chaffee's role as a fast reconnaissance vehicle.

Background and Model Fidelity

Introduced in 1944 to improve upon the M5 Stuart, the M24 featured stronger protection and a 75mm gun that increased battlefield capability. This kit reproduces those characteristic elements so modellers can study and display the vehicle's engineering traits.

Assembly Advice and Presentation Options

Careful assembly is key, particularly around the turret and suspension components. After painting and weathering, the finished model stands out whether mounted on a base or used in a diorama scene.
