About product

The engine compartment of the M10 tank destroyer in 1:35 scale

The set contains castings of cast resin and photo-etched sheet. It replaces the closed rear of a plastic model of the M10 with a faithful engine compartment, which can be shown with the covers opened on a vehicle on display. This is an accessory, not a kit in its own right; the modeler obtains the base model separately. The target kit is Academy.

What made the M10 interesting

The American M10 tank destroyer arose in 1942 on the chassis of the M4A2 Sherman medium tank and was powered by a pair of coupled General Motors diesels. The sloped armor plates and the open turret with a 3-inch gun matched the American doctrine of the day, according to which tank destroyers were to arrive quickly at a threatened sector of the front. It fought in Tunisia, in Sicily, in Italy and in northwestern Europe, and the British derived a rearmed version of their own from it.

How the set is fitted

First rid the castings of the remnants of mold release agent and cut off the sprue gates. The engine block is assembled away from the model, so that all its walls can be reached, and it is painted before being set into the hull; once it is closed up, a hand no longer reaches it. Cyanoacrylate glue holds resin and metal reliably; when sanding, work with protection of the airways.

Who it suits

  • Builders of dioramas with a vehicle under repair
  • Modelers who like showing vehicles part-built
  • Collectors of American vehicles of the Second World War
  • Those interested in a faithful engine compartment

The accessory is supplied unassembled and unpainted.

FAQ

It is not. This is an accessory for the engine compartment; you obtain the model of the tank destroyer itself separately.

Most reliably with cyanoacrylate-based glue. Ordinary glue for polystyrene does not work here.

It calls for a little practice at cutting off casting blocks, but the set is not demanding to build.

For the Academy kit in 1:35 scale. The base kit is not included in the package.
