About the M4 Sherman:

Perhaps the best known Allied tank during World War II, the M4 Sherman was designed to replace the M3 Lee. Named for the eccentric Union General William T. Sherman, the Sherman medium tank was mass produced to help offset better-armed German tanks such as the Tiger and Panther. The American war machine produced over 50,000 Sherman tanks between 1941 and 1945.

The Sherman chassis was used for several dozen different variants. Among these variants, several were specialized for mine clearance, rocket battery, or as a self-propelled howitzer. The standard M4 Sherman was equipped with a Continental R975 gasoline-powered engine and could achieve a top speed of 21 miles per hour. Stock Sherman examples were armed with two machine guns and a 75mm cannon, the Sherman could handle all but the heaviest German tanks. Although they struggled against German armor, the Allies found success in overwhelming the slower German tanks by often deploying five or more Sherman tanks against the same target.

The Sherman was also deployed during the Korean War but was eventually replaced by the M46 Patton.

• Speed: 21 mph (34 km/h)

About the Panzer 38(t) – German Light Tank:

A highly durable and easy to maintain tank, the Panzer 38(t) first saw action in 1939 and was initially very effective and popular. Used in infantry support as well as flanking maneuvers, the 38(t) proved deadly against light tanks and armored vehicles. However, during Operation Barbarossa the 6th, 7th, 8th, 12th, 19th and 20th Panzer Divisions met their match against the Soviet T-34s, and by 1942 had been repurposed for reconnaissance and defensive roles.

About the S-Tank – Stridsvagn 103 Main Battle Tank:

Designed and manufactured in Sweden during the Cold War, the Stridsvagn 103 or S-Tank was the first tank of its kind to use a turbine engine, which led to its unique low profile design. The purpose of the design was for the S-Tank to act as a defensive weapon, fortifying itself and its crew in a well protected area and then using the tank’s suspension to adjust the position of the gun. The tank was armed with a fixed Bofors 105mm L/62 and featured no turret, leaving the elevation and rotation of the gun to the tank’s revolutionary suspension system which could reach an elevation/depression of 22 degrees, better than most Cold War era tanks. Adding to its versatility, the S-Tank was also completely amphibious and could “swim” after less than 30 minutes of preparation.

Specifications:

• Weight: 42.5 tonnes (49 tons)
• Crew: 3
• Speed: 50 km/h (31 mph)
• Range: 390 km (290 mi)

About the HE 111H-16 – WWII Medium Bomber:

A further development of the H-6 variant, the Heinkel He 111H-16 was the third mass production variant of the He 111H which was Germany’s most important medium bomber of World War II. Developed after the Battle of Britain, the H-16 featured improved radar, armored glass for the gunners, and an increased armament. The He 111H-16, along with other variants, found their greatest triumph when a sneak attack destroyed over 40 B-17 bombers and nearly 20 P-51 fighters at the Soviet airfield of Potavia in late June of 1944, a final victory for one of the Lufwaffe’s most prominent planes.

Specifications:

• Max. Speed: 435 km/h (270 mph)
• Crew: 5
• Range: 2,000 km (1,242 miles)
• Armament: 13mm MG 131, 6x 7.92mm MG 81Z, 2,000 kg bombs

The He 111H-16 also features a full crew of five, including a pilot, two crew members and two gunners.

About the 2cm Flakvierling 38 – Anti-Aircraft Cannon:

The Flakvierling 38 was a quadruple-mounted 20mm FlaK 38 developed to address the original gun’s slow rate of fire against fast moving aircraft during World War II. Using two foot pedals, a seated gunner could fire from two or four barrels in semi-automatic or fully-automatic modes. Used on a wide variety of vehicles, such as the Opel Blitz or even on top of submarines, the Flakvierling 38 firing at maximum speed could achieve a fire rate of up to 1,400 rounds per minute. However, seeing as each barrel used its own ammunition box with a total of 20 rounds per barrel, the rate of fire was reduced to 800 rounds per minute and required the ammunition box on each of the four guns to be changed every six seconds, making it just barely effective enough to remain in use through the end of World War II.

Specifications:

• Caliber: 20 mm
• Maximum range: 2,200 m (2,406 yards)
• Rate of fire: 800 rounds/min
• Weight: 450 kg (992 lbs)
• Total length: 4.08 m (13 ft)

Additional information about this Brickmania® custom building kit:

Including seats for a crew of three along with a rotating and elevating four barrel mount, the Flakvierling 38 features brick-built ambush camo and adjustable custom printed bullseye sight. The model’s armor and base can also be removed making it possible to custom mount the model on a vehicle such as the Opel Blitz.

About the SdKfz 251 Ausf D – German Half Track Three-In-One kit:

SdKfz 251/1: First produced in early 1943, the SdKfz 251/1 Ausf D was the standard half track armored personnel carrier for the German Army in World War II. Equipped with dual MG42s, over 10,000 of the Ausf D models were built from 1943 to 1945 and were often used to tow the 10.5 cm LeFH 18 light howitzer, along with other field artillery.

SdKfz 251/9: Nicknamed the “Stummel”, which is German for stump, the SdKfz 251/9 Ausf D variant featured a 7.5 cm howitzer mounted on the roof, along with a coaxial MG42.

SdKfz 251/10: The command variant of the 251 Ausf D featured a 3.7 cm Pak 36 anti-tank gun for added artillery support. During initial production, the 251/10 mounted the entire top half of a Pak 36 gun shield on the roof, but this was later changed to better conceal the 251/10’s added firepower.
