Description
Overview
At the outset of World War II, the U.S. Army relied on lightly armed "scout cars" for reconnaissance. The M-8 Greyhound armoured car, developed during the war, was a game-changer. With increased protection and a 37mm cannon, it offered greater flexibility and firepower for supporting ground troops. Baptised by fire in Italy, from Monte Cassino to Anzio, the M-8 then played a crucial role in the D-Day landings. Though Normandy's terrain proved challenging, the Greyhound's speed and versatility made it invaluable. It served not only the U.S. Army but also numerous Allied nations.
Italeri have now recreated this piece of legend of machinery in 1/35 scale, ready for you to build.
