Italeri 7063 M3A1 Scout Car 1/72 is a high-quality plastic model kit, faithfully replicating one of the most recognizable reconnaissance vehicles used during World War II. This 1/72 scale model allows you to create a miniature of the American armored vehicle, which was used by the US Army as well as the British, French, and Soviet armies.

The M3A1 Scout Car was produced by the White Motor Company between 1940 and 1945. Its versatile use included patrols, reconnaissance, convoy escort, command support, transportation of soldiers as well as towing ZIS-3 anti-tank guns on the Eastern Front. These vehicles took part in the most significant theaters of World War II, such as North Africa, the Italian campaign, and the battles on the Eastern Front. Powered by a Hercules JXD six-cylinder engine delivering 110 hp, the M3A1 Scout Car could carry up to 8 soldiers and equipment, and was armed with a Browning M2HB 12.7 mm machine gun and two Browning 7.62 mm machine guns.
