Airfix British M3 Stuart "Honey" 1:35 Scale Plastic Model Tank Kit A1358<br>Note: Painting is required.  Paint is not included.<br>The British named the M3 "General Stuart" upon receipt of the tank under the Lend-Lease program in June of 1941. The tank's ability to "shoot and scoot" as well as keeping the crew safe from small fire arms fire, earned an affectionae nickname of "Honey" by its operators. The British cavalry men liked this tank as it could travel 10 to 20 mph faster than their own or enemy tanks, and for its ease of maintenance. The M3s were designed to replace the outdated M2s. The M3 incorporated a thicker armor, lengthened hull, and a trailer idler wheel to act as another road wheel to decrease ground pressure and improve weight distribution.<br>The M3 turret had three pistol ports and shortened recoil mechanism. It was also equipped waith a 37mm M6 gun, which was adequate early in the war, but by 1942, the German counterparts far surpassed the range of the M3. The narrow width of the M3 could not accommodate a larger gun. The M3A1 was fitted with a Westinghouse gyrostabilizer, a turret basket and an oil gear hydrolic traverse mechanism, but lacked a turret cupola. The earlier version of the M3A1, the Stuart III, was powered by Continental W-970-9A-7 cylinder radial gas 250 hp engine but by mid 1941, the Stuart IVs came off the production lines with Guiberson T-1020 air cooled radial diesel engine.<br>Combine Shipping:<br>Domestic:<br>We will happily combine shipping.  On small parts it is the highest shipping plus $1 for each additional item.  On parts<br>orders of $50 or more shipping is $5.99.<br>If you use the Ebay shopping cart you will receive the correct combine shipping rate.<br>International:<br>We will happily combine shipping.  On small parts it is the highest shipping plus $2 for each additional item.  For combine shipping on international orders please purchase the items without the Ebay shopping cart, but don't pay until we send an adjusted invoice.<br>Please contact us about combine shipping on larger items.<br>International Shipping:<br>WE SHIP INTERNATIONAL<br>, via USPS First Class Mail or Priority Mail International.  International shipments generally take 2-4 Weeks, but can take up to 6 weeks with customs delays.  Please be patient.<br>WE DO NOT FALSIFY CUSTOMS FORMS, BUYERS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL CUSTOMS FEES, DUTIES, AND TAXES.<br>I AM SORRY WE DO NOT SHIP TO ITALY, BRAZIL, AND AFRICA (EXCEPT FOR SOUTH AFRICA) NOT ALL ITEMS ARE AVAILABLE FOR INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING.<br>
