The M24 Chaffee was an American light tank of World War II. Between 1944 and
1945, 4,731 units were produced. It successfully replaced the M3/M5 Stuart
light tank. Chaffee was equipped with welded armor, two engines and a 75mm
cannon, which was previously designed for the B-25 Mitchell bomber. It was the
first Western Allied tank to use torsion sticks as suspensions. Occasionally,
Allied soldiers opened fire on their own tanks because the Chaffee chassis
resembled a German Panzer II and a Panther. On the turret there is an opening hatch and a machine
gun. On the model are extremely durable prints that do not scratch or smear,
even during intense play. Two U.S. troops figures are included. The first
figure is a tank commander equipped with an M3 submachine gun (lubricator) and
binoculars. It is accompanied by a tank mechanic equipped with a wrench. Both
soldiers have a new type of tank helmet. The set is sure to please younger
brick fans and adult collectors alike. Dioramas builders are sure to use it to
re-create the end of World War II. After minor modifications, the set will
also work in the theater of hostilities in Korea and Vietnam. COBI building
blocks are high-quality Polish made entirely in a factory in Mielec,
Podkarpacie.
