The M4 Sherman was the most important American medium tank of World War II. Produced in the years 1942-1945, it became the most recognizable American tank. The T34 Calliope was a 60-tube launcher that fired 114.3 mm (4.6 in) M8 rockets. The entire structure of the launch vehicle was made of plywood. It was a one-off structure and was removed after all the missiles had been fired. The advantage of the launch vehicle was the large number of rockets fired, with better performance than the German equivalent Nebelwerfer. The disadvantages were not the greatest accuracy of the missiles and the way they were mounted on the tank, which posed a significant threat to the crew in case of an urgent evacuation. Calliope was developed in 1943 and approximately 200 were produced. It was used in the American 2nd Armored Division in France.

The block-based Sherman has been produced in a large 1:28 scale, allowing greater detail to be reproduced! The tank has a movable gun, rotating turret, opening hatch and working tracks. The tower is equipped with the T34 Calliope multi-tube rocket launcher, consisting of 60 tubes. Special new elements have been designed to build it! All graphic details are high-quality prints that will not wear off, even during intensive play. The advantage is the design that uniquely reflects the original forms of its historical inspiration. There are additional accessories on the tank that mimic the vehicle and can be used by minifigures representing the tank's crew. Particularly noteworthy are the perfectly rendered figures of the tank commander and the characteristic French gendarme. They are heroes worthy of cult films and TV productions. The entire set is completed with a black collection plate with the name of the set printed on it.

Our tanks are perfect for adult military technology enthusiasts and anyone, regardless of age, who loves history and construction! Build history, piece by piece, with COBI.
