| Modeling the Sherman Tank in 1/72nd Scale |
| Support
Vehicles on M4 Chassis I origionally started this list with all sorts of vehicles that in fact were based on the M3 chassis instead of the M4 chassis, such as the M7 Priest, the M12 GMC, the Sexton, etc. Because it could be argued that since the M4 was a development of the M3, it unfortunately becomes a fine line between those support vehicles that were based on the M3 and those based on the M4 chassis. Perhaps in the future I can expand this site to include the M3 and its variants as well as the M4, since there are very few kits of those vehicles anyway. |
| M7B1 Self-Propelled Gun "Priest" |
| The initial M7 Priest was a development of the M3 chassis. Later models were based on the M4 chassis and designated as M7B1. At the time of this writing, there are no kits or conversions yet available of this version, which I think is a shame. |
| M32 TRV |
| The M32 was a tank recovery vehicle (TRV) based on the M4 tank chassis. The M32B1 was based on converted M4A1s, the M32B2 was based on converted M4A2 chassis, the M32B3 was based on the M4A3 (some with HVSS), and the M32B4 was based on the M4A4. |
