The so-called Sherman Firefly featured a long-barreled 17 pdr. anti-tank gun, that was much more effective than the original 75mm gun, capable of penetrating a Tiger I's frontal armor at over 1,000 meters using regular ammunition. The majority of Fireflies were adapted from M4A4 tanks, designated Sherman V by the British, while some were made using the earlier M4, or Sherman I in British usage. Vehicles rearmed with a 17 pdr. gun were given the suffix C, with the resulting units being Sherman VC and Sherman IC.\u003cbr clear=\"both\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tmpblock_ block_v16_ wysiwyg_\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"img_\"\u003e\u003ca class=\"popup-image\" href=\"https:\/\/d7z22c0gz59ng.cloudfront.net\/japan_contents\/img\/usr\/item\/3\/32532\/32532_4c1.jpg\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/d7z22c0gz59ng.cloudfront.net\/japan_contents\/img\/usr\/item\/3\/32532\/32532_4c1.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wysiwyg_area_\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text_\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eAbout the Model\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDetailed 1\/48 assembly model kit of the British Sherman IC Firefly. ★Length: 151mm. ★Features both hull-mounted and separately molded tools and accessories. ★Die-cast chassis for added weight and realism. ★Assembly type tracks with one-piece straing sections featuring realistic sag effect. ★Includes markings for 4 tanks.\u003cbr clear=\"both\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tmpblock_ block_v15_\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"img_\"\u003e\u003ca class=\"popup-image\" href=\"https:\/\/d7z22c0gz59ng.cloudfront.net\/japan_contents\/img\/usr\/item\/cut\/32532_ct1.jpg\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/d7z22c0gz59ng.cloudfront.net\/japan_contents\/img\/usr\/item\/cut\/32532_ct1.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"The Gift factory","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53799078396245,"sku":"32532","price":22.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0939\/0804\/2069\/files\/32532_1.jpg?v=1782039574","url":"https:\/\/the-gift-factory.co.uk\/products\/1-48-british-sherman-ic-firefly","provider":"The Gift factory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
