1/35 scale assembly kit of the M3 Grant Mk.I. This is a British spec variant of the U.S. M3 medium tank. It featured a larger turret than that of M3 Lee Mk.I and was armed with a 75mm M2 gun positioned in a sponson on the front-right side of the hull and a 37mm M5 gun in a turret on top of the hull. The machine gun cupola from the M3 Lee Mk.I was not fitted. Other features included front and rear fenders as well as side skirts. At the Battle of Gazala in 1942, it gave a great shock to German commanders with its firepower as it could score hits from a range at which the Africa Corps' Panzer IIIs could not reply.
