While it served with U.S. forces in campaigns such as North Africa, the M3 was also a key part of the Lend-Lease program. Thousands were supplied to Allied nations, including the Soviet Union, where the Red Army pressed the reliable little tank into service for reconnaissance and infantry support duties on the Eastern Front.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis 1\/35 scale kit from Tamiya is a highly accurate replica of a late production M3 Stuart, based upon extensive research of full-size vehicles. The model faithfully captures the tank's riveted hull and the later, cupola-less horseshoe-shaped turret. The kit is highly versatile, with optional parts for the side sponson machine guns, a commander torso figure with alternate U.S. and Soviet head options, and marking schemes for two Red Army vehicles and one U.S. Army vehicle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eAccurately captures the riveted hull and cupola-less turret of the late production M3\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncludes optional parts to recreate the side sponson machine guns\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe commander torso figure has separate head parts to depict U.S. or Soviet crew\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe realistic suspension is combined with convenient, cementable belt-type tracks\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePaint Options:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e2x Soviet Red Army\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x U.S. Army\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe machine gun ammo case can be assembled in the open or closed position\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eA great combination of fine detail and straightforward assembly\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eGenuine Tamiya Product\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eScale: 1\/35\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eLength: 129mm (5.08\")\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eWidth: 64mm (2.52\")\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eHeight: N\/A\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003ePieces: N\/A\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eDecal Schemes: 3\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eSkill Level: Intermediate\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIncluded Items\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Model Kit\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Commander Torso Figure (with 2 head options)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Set Of Belt-Type Tracks\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Decal Sheet\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Instruction Manual\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRequired Items\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eABS Plastic Safe Paint\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eModelling Glue\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Tweezers\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Scissors\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Modelling Knives\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Modelling Files\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"TAMIYA","offers":[{"title":"Hobbyco","offer_id":40426752213193,"sku":"10032399","price":53.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Hobbies Direct","offer_id":40426424205513,"sku":"10032399","price":65.12,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0024\/9803\/5810\/files\/1e17dbe6ff8042969a627adb0b0ff3b7.webp?v=1763440206","url":"https:\/\/www.jbhifi.com.au\/products\/tamiya-1-35-u-s-m3-stuart-late-production-tank-scaled-plastic-model-kit","provider":"JB Hi-Fi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
