Airfix - M-18 Hellcat - 1:35 (A1371)
Possessing legendary speed, the M18 Hellcat 76mm Gun Motor
Carriage was a late war American designed tank destroyer, which first saw action in
Western Europe during the summer of 1944 and is regarded as one of the most
effective military vehicles of its type. Intended to be held in reserve and used
strategically to challenge massed panzer attacks, wherever they occurred, the
Hellcat was capable of knocking out even the heaviest of German armour, including
the feared Tiger and Panther tanks, whilst also possessing the speed to outflank
their adversaries.
