Asuka 35-009SA Sherman FireFly VC w/Polskie Oznaczenia 1/35

Asuka 35-009SA Sherman FireFly VC in 1/35 scale is a precisely crafted plastic model kit of the famous British medium tank, used by the Polish Armed Forces in the West during World War II. This model is especially dedicated to collectors and military history enthusiasts who appreciate faithful reproduction of details and authentic historical markings.

The Firefly VC is a version of the popular American Sherman tank, modified by the British with the installation of the powerful 17-pounder anti-tank gun. Thanks to this, the Firefly could effectively fight the heaviest German tanks, such as the Tiger I or Panther. The Polish 1st Armored Division of Gen. Stanisław Maczek was equipped with this very vehicle, playing key roles during the battles of Normandy, the liberation of France, Belgium, and in the Dutch campaign in 1944–1945.
