The 17-pdr gun (Ordnance Quick-Firing 17-pounder) model represented a key upgrade for the British Sherman Firefly tank. The original Firefly was one of the most valued Allied support tanks introduced into service during WWII, especially during the Normandy landings and the fighting in Western Europe (1944-1945). By fitting the American Sherman with the powerful 17-pdr anti-tank gun, the British gained the ability to combat German Tiger and Panther tanks. The use of canvas gun covers—which protected against dust, mud and moisture—was characteristic for British units, and it is this unique feature that the Panzer Art RE35-213 set faithfully replicates.

This product is intended both for advanced modelers and enthusiasts who value historical accuracy. The set offers a difficulty level of 3/5—recommended for those already experienced with resin parts and precision assembly of small components. The fine detailing, crispness, and historical correctness make the Panzer Art RE35-213 an ideal choice for building dioramas and realistic replicas of British WWII tanks. Its unique character allows your model to stand out from others and will satisfy the expectations of even the most demanding collectors.
