History:

The M50 Super Sherman was developed by the Israeli Defence Forces during the 1950s as a major modernisation of the American M4A4 Sherman platform. The Mk2 version featured a new 75mm CN 75-50 gun, updated suspension, and improved mobility, ensuring it remained effective in post-war combat. The tank became a symbol of Israel’s early military resilience, serving prominently during the Six-Day War and Yom Kippur War. Rye Field Models’ upgraded kit captures this pivotal period in armoured warfare with exceptional attention to technical accuracy, making it a standout choice for historical modellers and collectors alike.
