U.S. AIRBORNE TANK M551 SHERIDAN (VIETNAM WAR)
Skala 1/35
1:35 U.S. Airborne Tank M551 Sheridan (Vietnam War)
This is a brand new addition to the legendary Tamiya 1/35 scale Military Miniature Series, recreating the M551 Sheridan Armored Reconnaissance/Airborne Assault Vehicle (AR/AAV).
The M551 was designed as airdrop capable armor with wading capabilities, a key concept as the U.S. took on the role of global policeman post- WWII. With an aluminum hull and rolled steel turret, it weighed just 15 tons, but had impressive firepower in the shape of the M81 152mm gun/launcher, which could fire standard rounds and MGM-51 Shillelagh missiles.
The M551 was in service with active units from 1968 to 1996, and saw action in the jungles of Vietnam.
