Tamiya 1/35 Super Stuart. This is an Israeli tank that was the follow on to the Super Sherman that had the larger gun mounted to it to defeat Egyptian armor. I modified the kit to accept an 88mm gun and added a searchlight and extra machine guns for spotting. This is a joke build, they really didn't do it I was just having fun. The recoil of the gun would flip the tank over.
