US Tamiya 1/35 US Light Tank M24 Chaffee (European Theater) – Model kit (Art.nr. 35391)
Are you ready for the ultimate fidelity of 1/35 scale? Tamiya is finally releasing a completely redesigned (New Tool) version of the iconic American light tank M24 Chaffee, as it operated at the end of World War II in Europe. Forget old reboxes - this kit sets a whole new standard for detail and building fun!
The M24 Chaffee was developed to replace the older M5 Stuart. With a powerful 75mm gun and excellent mobility, it quickly became a favorite among crews fighting on the Italian front and during the advance into Germany in 1944–1945.
