Dragon announces two new Sherman variants at 1/72
The Medium Tank M4, better known as the Sherman, appeared in various forms throughout its stellar career with Allied armies. One of the lesser known variants is the M4A3 (105mm), of which five hundred were manufactured by Detroit Arsenal between April and August 1944. The 105mm howitzer gun was fitted so that the vehicle could serve in the close support role, rather than in the usual tank role.

On the other hand, the M4A4 produced by Detroit Arsenal as well, had a three-piece bolted nose. It was powered by a Chrysler WC Multibank engine, which required the lengthening of the rear hull to accommodate it.
Many M4A4 Shermans were delivered to the British. This kit offers decal markings for different vehicles, including units as diverse as the RHQ Hussars and the Chinese Provisional Tank Group in Burma.

Is this just re-boxes, juggled sprues, and maybe new decals On the other hand, re-box, or not, Dragon's 1/72 M4's are the best.

I still have number "10" kit in the box. Bought it ages ago. I bet even kit numbers will be the same
