Modeling the Sherman Tank in 1/72nd Scale
 
M4A4 Sherman
M4A4
Known as the Sherman V in British service. The M4A4 entered service with the early small hatch hull, armed with the 75mm turret. This hull was never upgraded to the late version, big-hatch style, and retained dry stowage and the bolted 3-piece final drive housing (nose piece). Never uparmed with the 76mm turret, it was, however, uparmed by the British with the 17pdr gun, and named the Sherman VC (also known as Firefly).
