The official designation of this specific model type is "M4A3(76)W HVSS", but it is most often referred to as the M4A3E8 or "Easy Eight". This variant is visually distinguished by its 76mm M1A2 cannon and its "duckbill" track extensions. The Easy Eight served in WW2, the Korean War, and even into the early stages of the Vietnam War. Faithfully recreated in 1/16 scale, Torro continues to grow its reputation as a producer of high quality, high functioning RC tanks. This Pro Edition of the M4A3 Sherman features more than 70% metal part construction, a 360 degree rotating turret, a realistic torsion bar suspension, and a barrel recoil and muzzle flash effect that fires in sync with the IR (infrared) battle system. This version is delivered as RTR (Ready to Run), meaning it is fully functional out of the box. **All Metal Track System All of Torro's "Pro-Edition" tanks feature full metal drive systems. Single track links are connected with steel pins, propelled by metal drive sprockets and riding over metal road wheels and idler. **Heavy Metal Castings Hoist hooks, hatches and even simulated "welds" are reproduced in cast metal for unsurpassed scale realism. **IR Battle Ready Engage in friendly infrared ("IR") combat with other tanks using Torro's proprietary IR Battle System, both inflicting hits upon and receiving hits from opponents! Sounds and action signal each hit, until the 5th hit disables the tank. After 10 seconds, the disabled tank restarts and can rejoin the fight! **Barrel Recoil The barrel has fully functioning recoil to further the scale realism and appeal. **360 Degree Turret Fully rotate the metal turret 360 degrees, and move the all-metal barrel up and down to train on your target. Torro's integrated drive electronics gives you complete proportional control to translate your precise inputs to all axe of movement. Drive, turn, traverse, train, and fire!
