RPM – 72210 – American “Six-ton” M1917 (early version)

Description:

American “Six-ton” M1917
(early version)

Unassembled plastic model kit in 1/72 scale of a French designed FT 17 tank in its U.S. produced variant M1917.

Although it was intended to supply the U.S. expeditionary forces in Europe during the world war I, the model was not produced on time, any single model arrived before the end of the war, instead France supplied 144 tanks enough to build up two battalions.

The kit shares with all the other Ft 17 by the brand the problem of the ugly vinyl tracks.
