CB35072 M-24 CHAFFEE Post-War Version Service In Asian Army For

Development of the M24 began as early as March 1943, although the original requirement was for a vehicle based on the M5A1 chassis, but fitted with a much more powerful 75mm gun. Eventually this requirement morphed into a ne design that was to share many features of the M18 tank destroyer including torsion bar suspension. The first vehicle arrived at the Aberdeen proving ground in October 1943, with production beginning in April 1944, in time for the vehicle to be shipped to Europe and see action in the Battle of the Bulge. Named after General Adna Chaffee, it was seldom referred to as the Chaffee by crews at the time.

 

This new kit by Bronco represents a Post World War II version of the tank as used by various Asian Armies such as the Taiwan Army, Pakistan Army and JGSDF.
