Argentine Sherman Repotenciado
An Unusual Sherman Variant

Skala:
1:35
Status:
Idéer

Shortly after WWII, Argentina bought around 450 Shermans from Belgium, including a large number of Firefly versions. Then in the '70's, as a stop-gap measure, they converted around 250 of them to deal with a Chilean border crisis. "Repotenciado" literally means "upgraded".

The 3d printed parts were designed for Dragon kits, but should fit Asuka kits with a little adjustment to the engine cover.
Dragon's Firefly Vc 6182 from 2003 was used in the magazine article.
