Takom 1:35 M51 Degem Alef Sherman Plastic Model Kit

Build the ultimate evolution of the legendary Sherman tank with the Takom 1:35 M51 Degem Alef Sherman Plastic Model Kit. This highly detailed model recreates the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) M51 "Degem Alef", the first production version of Israel's famous Super Sherman upgrade. Developed in the late 1950s and fielded during the 1960s, the M51 combined the reliable M4A1 Sherman chassis with a modified French 105mm D.1508 cannon, upgraded suspension, and improved mobility, allowing it to successfully engage newer Soviet-built tanks during the Six-Day War and Yom Kippur War.

Takom's kit offers exceptional detail with photo-etched parts, a metal gun barrel, clear parts, workable individual-link tracks, and movable suspension and road wheels. Builders can pose the hatches open or closed, and the kit includes one crew figure plus four marking options for authentic Israeli Army vehicles.

Whether you're building an Israeli armored vehicle collection or recreating a Middle East battlefield scene, the Takom M51 Degem Alef Sherman delivers outstanding accuracy and an enjoyable building experience.
