About product

UM 1:72 M10A1 Tank Destroyer (late version)

This injection-molded plastic kit in 1:72 scale from the Ukrainian maker UM (Unimodels) captures the American M10A1 tank destroyer in its late configuration. The set usually holds photo-etched parts and plastic tracks built up by the link-and-length method, and it is richly broken down into small parts.

The real subject

The M10 was the most widespread American tank destroyer of the Second World War, built on the chassis of the M4 Sherman medium tank. The M10A1 version used a chassis with a gasoline engine. Its characteristic open rotating turret carried a 76 mm anti-tank gun. The late configuration differed from the early vehicles in details of the turret and the fittings.

Building and painting tips

First assemble the running gear and the inside of the open turret, and only then close up the hull. Glue the plastic with liquid cement and the small photo-etched parts with cyanoacrylate glue. We recommend spraying the model with an airbrush over a primer; you will build the mud and dust effects with washes and pigments, and the open turret invites detailed work on the interior.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of American armored vehicles in 1:72
  • Anyone interested in vehicles on the Sherman chassis
  • Modelers with experience of small parts and photo-etch
  • Builders of Western Front dioramas

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

FAQ

The M10A1 version used a chassis with a gasoline engine; otherwise it shares the layout of the open turret and the 76 mm gun.

Late vehicles differed from the early ones in details of the turret and the fittings; the kit captures that form.

Because of the large number of small parts and photo-etch we would recommend it to more experienced modelers.
