WWll TANK COLLECTION - 74 PARTS - HIGHLY DETALIED KIT - DECALS FOR 2 VERSIONS - 2 ALTERNATIVE MODELS: M8 - M20 - FIGURE INCLUDEDAt the beginning of World War II, the U.S. Army had lightweight and lightly armed vehicles, called "scout cars," for advanced reconnaissance activities. Developed during the war, the M-8 Greyhound armored car, characterized by increased protection and heavier armament, represented a turning point for the American army. The vehicle provided greater operational flexibility and could be more effectively used to support ground troops thanks to the 37mm cannon installed in the turret. First used on the Italian front, from Monte Cassino to Anzio, it later participated in the D-Day operations in June 1944. Although the terrain in Normandy proved challenging and demanding during the initial phases of the operation, later on the M-8 was particularly appreciated for its speed of movement and versatility in deployment. The M-20 version was developed from the M8 version for Military Police duties and command vehicle roles.Suggested colorsF Black 4768AP | F.S. 37038MG Brass 4672APF Flat Rubber 4861AP | F.S. 26081MF Gun Metal 4681AP | F.S. 37200F Olive Drab US Army 4728AP | F.S. 34084G Red 4605AP | F.S. 11302F Skin Tone Tint Base - Light 4601AP | F.S. 31575F White 4769AP | F.S. 37875Decals for 2 versions
