AIRFIX AIR55109 CROMWELL CRUISER GIFT SET (1/76)

The Cromwell Cruiser tank was a British medium tank that played a crucial role during World War II, particularly in the later stages of the conflict. Developed as part of the British cruiser tank series, the Cromwell was designed for speed and mobility, intended to exploit breakthroughs and support infantry in fast-moving operations. Powered by the powerful Rolls-Royce Meteor engine, derived from the famous Merlin engine used in aircraft like the Spitfire, the Cromwell was one of the fastest tanks in the war, capable of reaching speeds of up to 40 mph. Its speed, combined with relatively good armor and a reliable 75mm gun, made the Cromwell a versatile and effective vehicle on the battlefield.
