British armoured regiments were delighted to receive the new American-made M3 Grant tank as it gave them a tank with a gun as good as those on the German panzers, with armour to match. Rushed into service to meet the urgent need for a heavy 75mm-armed tank, it took the Germans by surprise. Its thick armour and powerful 75mm gun were superior to most of the German panzers.Includes five plastic Grant tanks, one plastic tank commander sprue, one decal sheet and five unit cards.
