Why this kit matters
The M24 Chaffee light tank played a crucial role in the Korean War, providing valuable reconnaissance and fire support to U.S. and Allied forces.

The M24's service in Korea highlighted the importance of light tanks in modern warfare and influenced future tank designs.

Building the M24 Chaffee model provides an engaging and educational experience, allowing you to learn about the tank's design, features, and operational history.
