I'm sorry these pictures can no longer be viewed until next month where the counter will be reset to zero and the pictures would then appear again. For the newer posts I am using another account so it is not affected. Enjoy !
Back to DRAGON ARMOR SCALE 1:72. This is how "big" these models are. Given the size I really salute their models moulding and marking + details - one of a kind
These 3 tanks are from KOREAN WAR series. 60th ANNIVERSARY limited editions (once quantities sold out never produced again)
The Korean War was a war between North and South Korea, in which a United Nations force led by the United States of America fought for the South, and China fought for the North, which was also assisted by the Soviet Union. The war arose from the division of Korea at the end of World War II and from the global tensions of the Cold War that developed immediately afterwards.
Dragon Armor - M4A3E8 (76W) HVSS, 24th Infantry Div., Han River, Korea 1951 (Dragon Armor 60470)
M4A3E8 (76W) HVSS, 24th Infantry Div., Han River, Korea 1951 - The M4A3E8 Sherman has improved Horizontal Volute Spring System (HVSS) suspension and wider tracks. This model has the long-barreled 76mm M1A1 gun, depicting the most common Sherman variant to see combat during the Korean War. The actual tank depicted is from the 5th Infantry Tank Company of the 24th Infantry Division. This particular division was the first US Army formation dispatched after war broke out on the Korean Peninsular. Deployed from Japan, it spent the first 18 months in heavy combat with North Korean troops.
The striking tiger markings on the nose, turret and hull sides were applied for Operations Killer and Ripper in February-March 1951, operations that were part of a big push to recapture Seoul and decimate enemy forces. This was the fourth time Seoul had been conquered within the space of a year. The markings applied to tanks were supposed to inspire friendly troops and intimidate superstitious North Korean soldiers who held the tiger in awe!
