Aber Sherman M4A4, Vc Firefly 1:35 is a photo-etched metal detail set for plastic models of the British Sherman Firefly tank. It is not a kit but a refining accessory.
Responsibility details are not available.
This is a detail photo-etched set from the Polish manufacturer Aber for models of the Sherman M4A4 tank and its British rearmed version, the Vc Firefly, in 1:35 scale. The package contains fine parts of etched brass sheet, which replace the coarser plastic elements of the hull and the turret, among them tool clamps, handles and fittings. Note: it is not a model of the tank but a metal accessory for a plastic kit you have already bought.
The Sherman Vc Firefly was the British conversion of the American Sherman M4A4, into which a powerful 17-pounder anti-tank gun was fitted. This gun could penetrate the armor of heavy German tanks, and the Firefly thus became one of the few Allied tanks able to face them on equal terms at range. Its recognition features were the long barrel and the elongated stowage bin at the rear of the turret.
The photo-etched parts are cut off with a sharp knife or with special scissors, bent over a photo-etch bending tool and glued with super glue (cyanoacrylate) or with epoxy. Fine metal clamps and handles refine the look of the hull compared with plastic. Degrease the metal and prime it before painting.
This is a photo-etched metal accessory, not a model in its own right. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package.
