Tamiya 35251 1/35 M4A3 Sherman 105mm Howitzer Kit Overview

The M4A3 Sherman with 105mm Howitzer is recreated by Tamiya in this 1/35 scale kit, offering a faithful representation of the US medium tank used in WWII. The model balances authentic detail with assembly clarity, appealing to builders and display collectors alike.

Historical Role and Kit Components

Well regarded for its service flexibility, the Sherman family adapted to many battlefield roles; the 105mm Howitzer provided short-range artillery support. Tamiya reflects these features through parts designed for correct proportions and functional detail like poly-caps for gun elevation.

Realism and Display Quality

Paintable rubber-padded tracks are supplied to improve realism once finished. The included infantry figures and tank commander help stage period scenes, and stowage items such as ammo boxes and ration cases enhance diorama authenticity.

Customisation, Decals and Finishing

Modelers get three decal options to personalise the Sherman for different units. Recommended paint guidance lists TS-5 Olive Drab for accurate US Army finishes, helping the model fit with other 1/35 armour projects.
