Tamiya 35254 U.S. M26 Pershing T26E3 1/35 Scale

The U.S. Medium Tank M26 Pershing made its appearance at the end of WWII to allow the American army to stand up to the wrath of German tanks. The Pershing with its 90mm gun and incredible mobility, was first deployed to the European front in February 1945. 200 Pershing tanks were used against Germany until its surrender and successfully engaged Tiger I and Pz.kpfw. IV tanks. When the Korean War began in June 1950, the M26 also fought successfully against the rival T34/85 Soviet built tanks of the North Korean and Chinese volunteer armies.
