Product Introduction
This is the Ryefield Models "1/35 M4A4 Sherman" plastic model kit.
The M4 medium tank, developed and manufactured in the United States during World War II, is a 30-ton medium tank boasting high mobility and firepower.
The M4A4 was manufactured at the Detroit Tank Arsenal and equipped with an A-57 double-row, 30-cylinder, liquid-cooled gasoline engine.
Many of these vehicles were supplied to the British Army. While their unique 30-cylinder engine configuration—five straight-six gasoline engines arrayed in a fan shape—made them difficult to maintain, they are said to have experienced fewer breakdowns and a good operational record compared to contemporary British tanks.
Approximately 7,500 M4A4s were produced between June 1942 and August 1943. While the U.S. military used them solely for training purposes within the U.S.,
they were also supplied to the Canadian Army, Free Polish Army, Free French Army, and Nationalist Chinese Army.
