armoured plate and the installation of the modified M5A1
turret and two .30cal gun tubs. Introduced into service
in early 1944 to give much needed support in the early
stages of amphibious landings they continued in service
along side their replacements, the LVT(A)4 (US17), as
late as the Okinawa landings.

both the US Army (328) and the Marines (182). Our model
has all hatches open.Figure set FIG.1; LVT Crew (Upper
torsos only) was designed specifically for this kit. |
