Tamiya US M40 Self Propelled 155mm Gun (1:35 Scale)

Developed to advance U.S. Army artillery mechanisation, the M40 combined the M1 155mm gun with the proven M4 Sherman chassis. This Tamiya 1:35 scale assembly model captures the distinctive layout changes made to accommodate the large rear fighting compartment, along with the vehicle’s light armour concept for long-range deployment.

New to Tamiya’s 1:35 line-up, the kit uses all-new tooling with the exception of the suspension parts, which are taken from the M4A3E8 Sherman “Easy Eight” model kit. The real vehicle was fitted with smooth horizontal volute spring suspension (HVSS) and saw service in the Korean War before being replaced by the M53. A considered choice for adult constructors, it offers an engaging build for military modelling collections.
