It combined a 75mm hull-mounted gun with a 37mm turret gun, giving it unusual firepower for its time. While quickly replaced in European theatres, it saw wider use in North Africa and the Pacific where it provided reliable armoured support.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAustralian forces operated the M3 Lee in training and operational roles during the Pacific campaign. These tanks supported infantry operations and helped build early armoured capability in difficult jungle and island environments. The design reflects wartime engineering trade-offs and rapid production needs during a critical period of the war.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow to use it\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuild step by step using plastic cement, paint, and modelling tools. Focus on the interior first, then close the hull sections for final assembly.
