Adrian Barrell Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Looks like a mock up hull and the turret has a mock up mounting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotchpotch Ranger Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Could be a mock up of the M50 Sherman as used by the IDF, The early ones used M4A4 Turrets, a la Firefly? The M50 was the precurser to teh M51 Super sherman. The mounting looks as if he wouldn't move on these, so I woudl say they were mock ups too.

AlienFTM Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Lurking somewhere in Jordan. Looks odd, from the tracks up! Looks to me like an M4A3E2/E8 hull with the flat glacis plate. I was of the belief that all Fireflies had the earlier glacis plate with the hatches protruding. But I am usually wrong and no doubt I am again.

I suspect it has just been clad in flat plates or is a mock up upper hull. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
