About the A6M5 Zero – WWII Long-Range Fighter:
Perhaps one of the most successful fighter planes in history upon its release, the A6M5 Zero spent its first two years of production as the most feared fighter on the planet, racking up a kill ratio of 12 to 1. However, as aircraft engines advanced, the Zero soon ran out of luck as the plane could not be modified to include a higher powered engine. Due to the struggling war-time Japanese economy, the Zero remained in service in high numbers until the end of World War II. The A6M5 version was first produced in 1943 and was all the Japanese could muster to keep up with the expanding variants of Allied aircraft.

About the Kurogane Type 95 Japanese Staff Car:
Developed as a reconnaissance vehicle for the Japanese Imperial Army shortly before the outbreak of World War II, the Type 95 was the world’s first massed produced 4×4 passenger car and served similarly to the Willys Jeep in that it was mainly used for transporting messages and personnel. The vehicle’s greatest asset proved to be the air-cooled engine that performed well in the climate of northern China and freed the Japanese from further reliance on unpolluted water, which was difficult to find in the region.

About the M51 Super Sherman Main Battle Tank:
Arriving in 1965, the M51 Super Sherman was an Israeli combination of a Sherman M4A1 and the French 105 mm Model F1 cannon. A now modernized variant of the World War II workhorse, the M-51 served until the 1980s; most notably in the Six Day War in 1967 where, despite its older origin, the M51 dueled valiantly against the modern Soviet armor of the time, including T-54/55s and T-34s.

About the Jagdpanther – Tank Destroyer:
Seeing action in both the Western and Eastern Fronts, the Jagdpanther (“hunting panther”) was perhaps the most iconic tank destroyer of World War II. Matching its intimidating title was an equally impressive armament that included an 88mm Pak 43 as the main gun. Famously known for their action in July of 1944, three Jagdpanthers managed to disable 11 Churchill tanks in just two minutes of fighting near St. Martin de Bois in France. Although incredibly effective, far too few Jagdpanthers were produced far too late to make a significant impact on the outcome of the war.
Specifications:
Additional information about this Brickmania® custom building kit:
Designed to capture the unique shape of the Jagdpanther, this Brickmania model comes with many of the standard features, including an opening top hatch, smooth rolling suspension, brick-built exhaust, a 3D printed Tiger muzzle brake, and spare tank treads.

About the Gaz AAA – Medium Duty Military Truck:
Built in the Soviet Union, the GAZ AAA was a 6×4 cargo truck based on the Ford Model AA. It was produced for the Red Army by the thousands during the Second World War, serving a similar role as the CCKW for American forces. GAZ trucks were a vital component to the Soviet war effort, hauling artillery pieces, moving supplies, and providing a mount for anti-aircraft guns.

About the Pak 40 – Anti-Tank Gun:
Designed shortly before the outbreak of World War II, the Pak 40 anti-tank project was shelved due to the lighting-fast success by the Wehrmacht. After Operation Barbarossa, the Pak 40 was immediately put into production with its battlefield debut during the battle for Kharkov in May 1942. The Pak 40 had a remarkably low silhouette, making it easy to conceal in spite of its size. The Pak 40 could defeat the heaviest Allied tanks up until the end of the war.

About the M4 Sherman:
Perhaps the best known Allied tank during World War II, the M4 Sherman was designed to replace the M3 Lee. Named for the eccentric Union General William T. Sherman, the Sherman medium tank was mass produced to help offset better-armed German tanks such as the Tiger and Panther. The American war machine produced over 50,000 Sherman tanks between 1941 and 1945.
The Sherman chassis was used for several dozen different variants. Among these variants, several were specialized for mine clearance, rocket battery, or as a self-propelled howitzer. The standard M4 Sherman was equipped with a Continental R975 gasoline-powered engine and could achieve a top speed of 21 miles per hour. Stock Sherman examples were armed with two machine guns and a 75mm cannon, the Sherman could handle all but the heaviest German tanks. Although they struggled against German armor, the Allies found success in overwhelming the slower German tanks by often deploying five or more Sherman tanks against the same target.
The Sherman was also deployed during the Korean War but was eventually replaced by the M46 Patton.

First appearing in 1956, the M274 “Mule” proved to be an incredibly versatile and inexpensive vehicle used by the U.S. Military until the 1980s. Sporting a simple yet effective design, the M274 was used in a variety of load outs with this particular variant featuring an M40 recoilless rifle. During combat the M274’s steering column could be moved forward and down and then driven in reverse, allowing the driver and rifle operators to engage in combat while crawling behind the vehicle for added cover.

About the F-22® Raptor® Stealth Air Superiority Fighter:
Unmatched by any known fighter in the world today, the F-22 Raptor is the first 5th-generation fighter to serve the U.S. Air Force. Armed with the most advanced avionics on the planet, the F-22 serves as stealth superiority fighter while maintaining its ability to attack surface targets. Perhaps its greatest asset is the aircraft’s two Pratt & Whitney F119-PW-100 turbofan engines with two-dimensional thrust vectoring nozzles, which allows the F-22 to cruise at supersonic airspeeds (greater than 1.5 Mach) without using afterburner, giving it superior speed and range without increasing fuel consumption.
