Why this kit matters
The M36B1 GMC was an American tank destroyer used during World War II. It was designed to counter heavily armoured German tanks, such as the Tiger and Panther. The M36B1 combined the powerful 90mm gun with the M4 Sherman chassis, providing a mobile and effective anti-tank platform. Its firepower and mobility made it a valuable asset to Allied forces in Europe.
