About product

The U.S. Tank Destroyer M10 Mid Production in 1:48 scale from Tamiya

This plastic kit captures the American M10 tank destroyer in its mid-production version. The model builds on a hull derived from the Sherman tank and faithfully reproduces the characteristic open pentagonal turret with its long gun. The box holds decals and instructions with a color scheme.

The real subject

The M10 was built on the hull of the Sherman and carried a 3-inch (76.2 mm) gun in an open turret, able to pierce thick armor at ranges of thousands of meters. It went into action against the Germans in Tunisia in 1943 and served further in Italy, in western Europe and in the Pacific. The open turret gave a good view but exposed the crew to splinters and to the weather.

Building and painting tips

Finish the running gear before you close the hull up. Glue the parts with liquid modeling cement for plastic; a primer coat and an airbrush are worth using. The open turret gives room for painting the interior in detail and for adding rounds or equipment. For a realistic look, use washes and dust pigments on the chassis.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of American armored vehicles of the Second World War
  • Modelers who will appreciate the detail of the open turret
  • Anyone interested in the space-saving 1:48 scale

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
