AFV Club 35027 VVSS M4 Sherman T-49 Track 1/35 – Plastic Tracks for Sherman Tanks

The AFV Club 35027 VVSS M4 Sherman T-49 Track set in 1/35 scale is a high-quality plastic track set designed for M4 Sherman tank models using VVSS (Vertical Volute Spring Suspension) and T49 type track links. This product is an excellent addition or replacement for standard tracks included in many base kits of Shermans in this popular scale.

Historical Information and Application

The M4 Shermans formed the backbone of the American Army’s armored forces during World War II (1939–1945), and were also extensively used by Allied forces—including the United Kingdom, USSR, Canada, and Poland—not only during the war but in post-war periods as well. The T49 type tracks, with their characteristically sharply defined tread, improved vehicle traction in difficult terrain. They were primarily used during fighting in Western Europe, where muddy and clay soils required the use of more durable and "off-road" track links.
