Details:
This kit contains optional parts to build either the
Mk.IX which consisted of the Mk.IV hull, with additional
applique armour and the new style turret from the Mk.VII,
but still retaining the original 6pdr.Gun.
Alternatively
the Mk.X can be built, which again consisted of the
Mk.IV hull, applique armour and the Mk.VII turret, but
with the late 75mm gun.
Both entered
service in mid 1944 and saw action throughout NW Europe. |
