About this release:
One of Creighton Abrams’ tanks is featured in the latest Dragon Armor release.
His Sherman M4A3E8(76)W is christened “Thunderbolt VII”. Abrams fought in this
tank while he was commander of the 37th Tank Battalion of the 4th Armored Division.
He was an aggressive commander and his unit was frequently in the vanguard of
the Third Army’s advance across Northwest Europe. While the Sherman was outmatched
by larger and heavily armed German tanks, Abrams used the reliability and speed
of his own vehicles to overcome his adversaries. This 1/72 scale model is accurately
crafted and beautifully finished. From the finely detailed HVSS to the .50-cal
and .30-cal machine guns on the turret top, this model is a work of art. The
“Thunderbolt” markings have been expertly pad-painted. This is a classic model
of an important tank of a historic commander – the original “Abrams” tank!
