Tamiya 1/35 M10 IIC Achilles Tank Destroyer

The Tamiya 1/35 M10 IIC Achilles Tank Destroyer from our 1/35 scale military vehicle model kits range range accurately recreates the real-life British variant of the US World War II tank destroyer, armed with the 17 pounder anti-tank gun. This plastic model kit requires paint and glue to complete. The Achilles was a modification of the M10s which Britain received from the US , with the original 3-inch main gun replaced by the fearsome British 17 pounder. The vast majority of M10s were the M10 IIC variant, which was based upon the late-production M10 with distinctive enlarged turret-rear counterweight. Around 1,000 were produced between Spring 1944 and the end of WWII, the Allied forces making good use of it after the Normandy landings, benefiting from the power of the gun which allowed it to tear through Tiger I front armour.
