Product: 1:24 M-24 “Chaffe” Korean War

The M24 Chaffee was deployed to US Army armoured battalions from 1944
onwards to provide a light battlefield tank that could effectively
replace the older M3 / M5 Stuart. The configuration of the M-24 was
superior to its predecessor in so many ways that it can be considered
one of the foremost light tanks that were ever produced. Agile, robust
and reliable, it had as its main armament a 75mm M6 cannon with 48
rounds available, a very powerful version indeed of a “light tank”. The
tank’s armament was complete with its two 12.7 mm Browning machine guns.
Following the conclusion of the Second World War, where it’s
capabilities had been fully demonstrated, it participated in the Korean
War providing support to M4 Sherman tanks and the heavier M26 Pershing.
It was also effectively utilised in advanced reconnaissance roles or providing close infantry support.
