Lego M18 Hellcat

The M18 Hellcat was an American tank destroyer of World War II. Armed with a 76 mm cannon, the vehicle was the fastest tracked, armored fighting vehicle during World War II with a top speed up to 60 mph (92kph). The speed was attained by keeping armor to a minimum, no more than 1" thick. Hellcat crews took advantage of the vehicle's speed to minimize the enemy's ability to pierce its thin armor.

I really enjoyed building the Hellcat, and I hope you do like it as much as I do.

 

note: I'm still experimenting how Flickr and my camera work, so if you have any tips for the photos or for my creation, please let my know in the comments.
