It featured a lightweight hull, the first torsion bar suspension on a U.S. vehicle, and a powerful radial engine, making it the fastest tracked vehicle of WWII. Its open-topped turret housed a potent 76mm gun, ideal for the hit-and-run tactics it employed so effectively.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis 1\/35 scale kit from Tamiya is a precise recreation based on exhaustive studies of the real vehicle. It boasts a fully detailed open-topped turret interior, complete with gun breech, shell racks, and radio.
