| Details:
Between August
1940 and December 1942, the USA produced 6258 M3 types.
Of these 600 were supplied to the British and with the
radically redisgned turrets became the Grant (see UK2).
Some Lee's
were also supplied to the British in North Africa and
with the first delivery of 200 prior to the Battle of
Gazala, helped change the course of the war in the Desert.
Although regarded
as outdated by 1943 for use against the Germans, they
were still adequate for the war with Japan and as such
were used by the British and Australians in Burma, etc.,
In American service they saw action in Tunisia and also
in the Pacific campaign.
Our model
has a fully detailed interior and has optional 75mm
M2 guns supplied.
