The letter \"W\" denotes the presence of a wet ammunition storage, reducing the risk of shell explosions when hit. These tanks were extensively used by the American Army from 1944, especially during battles in Western Europe, such as the Normandy landings, the Battle of the Bulge, and the liberation of Germany. They also participated in Allied military actions in Italy and France.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eModel scale: \u003cstrong\u003e1\/72\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCountry of use: \u003cstrong\u003eUnited States of America\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eHistorical period: \u003cstrong\u003eWorld War II (1944-1945)\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaterial: \u003cstrong\u003ehigh-quality plastic\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCategory: \u003cstrong\u003eplastic model kit\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eKit contents: \u003cstrong\u003edetailed plastic parts; no metal or resin accessories included\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDimensions when assembled (approximate): \u003cstrong\u003elength approx. 9 cm\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eFeatures of the Trumpeter 07226 Model\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    The Trumpeter 07226 model stands out for its very good detailing and precisely reproduced components of the hull, turret, chassis, and armament.
