Description
 
Bolt Action - US M18 Hellcat Tank Destroyer Plastic
Armed with a 76mm gun, the Hellcat was designed specifically to hunt and destroy enemy armour using superior speed and manoeuvrability. The Hellcat’s prodigious speed was attained by keeping it’s armour to no more than 1″ thick. Hellcat crews used its speed to outflank and penetrate the side and back of the heavily armoured German Tiger and Panther tanks, and avoid being struck in their own thin side and rear.

The M18 Hellcat saw service in the Western Front in the main. However it also saw action in the Pacific and in Italy. The US military also supplied the M18 to Chinese Nationalist forces opposing the Japanese in the Pacific theatre. As this was something of an overkill situation against weakly armoured Japanese tanks, the Hellcat was more often used in a fire support role.

Contains:

•1 M18 Hellcat plastic kit
•1 Waterslide transfer set
•1 Full colour construction and paint guide
•1 Colour, detailed stats, Bolt Action play card
