Egyptian M4 Sherman + AMX turret

£3.85

France developed this upgrade for Egypts sherman tanks it had aquired from Britain after WW2. The FL-10 turret used on the AMX 13 was mated with the Sherman hull to gice more firepower. FL-10 features included; Autoloader for the gun which held 12 rounds in the turret bustle this allowed the crew to be reduced to 4. The gun was rigidly mounted in an oscillating turret, reducing weight. Ironicaly the gun was a development of the very effective German 75mm KwK 42 L/70 used in the Panther tank of WW2.
