TAMIYA RC 1/35 US MEDIUM TANK M4A3 SHERMAN WITH CONTROL UNIT

Tamiya RC 1/35 U.S. Medium Tank M4A3 Sherman (w/Control Unit)

Recreate an Allied WWII mainstay with the Tamiya M4A3 Sherman, a compact 1/35 scale kit with an included dedicated control unit. Please note this is an unassembled kit requiring construction, so builders should expect to assemble the hull, turret, and gearbox before driving. With around 50,000 Sherman tanks produced overall, the M4A3 arguably represented the design's zenith, combining a welded hull with a highly reliable V8 gasoline engine; late-production examples added single-plate frontal armor, a dedicated loader's hatch, and wet ammunition storage, and 75mm-gun M4A3s served both after the Normandy landings and in the Pacific Theater.

Compact included R/C equipment allows turns and pivots in addition to forward and reverse motion, plus turret rotation and gun elevation, while assembly-type tracks ensure realistic running and an authentic look. Model parts are molded in plastic and can be weathered just like a static model for an impressive finish, with three marking options included covering the Battle of the Bulge and the Pacific Theater.
