Tamiya 1/35 US Tank T26E4 ( Super Pershing ) - Pre-Production #35319  [35319]

• Towards M26 "Pershing"
  Development of what would get to be the M26 Pershing began in 1942. It had been to be an alternative the M4 Sherman, that has been the typical U.S. Army tank during the time, and features such as for example a lesser profile hull and cast turret were included through the development procedure of the many prototypes. This fundamentally culminated within the T26E1 prototype armed because of the 90mm M3 gun, and from that stemmed the manufacturing variation which was called the T26E3. Initial T26E3s were sent to European countries in January 1944, and as they were implemented toward battlefield, they were re-designated M26. Although over 300 reached the movie theater before the end associated with the war, only 20 really saw combat. In these restricted actions, the M26s proved capable of defeating the German Panther and Tiger tanks they had been designed to counter.

• In regards to the T26E4 "Super Pershing"
  Although the standard M26 Pershing's 90mm M3 weapon was effective, it had been maybe not on par because of the German King Tiger hefty tank's weapon. Thus the T15E1 90mm weapon, that has been larger in caliber and fired a one-piece shell at a higher muzzle velocity, was created. This weapon was fitted onto a modified T26E1 model, and showcased cylindrical stabilizers mounted on the turret to deal with the longer length of the gun barrel. It was the very first "Super Pershing" plus it was delivered to Europe as well, where it had been involved with simply a handful of engagements against German tanks. The next "Super Pershing" was made by modifying a T26E3. It was designated T26E4 and ended up being armed with a T15E2 90mm weapon that fired a two-piece ammo and a redesigned weapon mount to eliminate the need for the stabilizers. This pre-production T26E4 "Super Pershing" was not sent to European countries. The modifications that had been tested on this pre-production T26E4 were included to the actual production-spec T26E4s, that 25 were built before production was canceled..
