The water-slide decal set Star Decals 35-C1265 Shermans in Chile 1/35 is a high-quality set designed for plastic models in the popular 1/35 scale. This product is intended for modelers who want to create realistic replicas of Sherman tanks used by the Chilean armed forces after World War II. The decal set allows you to mark various versions of the legendary Shermans, such as the M4A1E9, M50/60 with 60 mm gun, and the famous M51 Super Sherman (a version based on the Israeli variant).

Unique representation of post-war Shermans in Chile

This set focuses on vehicles that entered service with the Chilean armored forces after the end of World War II, during the Cold War era. Chile acquired Shermans both directly from America and from Israel. Some of them were upgraded with Israeli modernization packages, such as the 60 mm gun (M50/60) or the long-range 105 mm gun in the M51 Super Sherman. These tanks were used by the Chilean army from the 1950s up to the 1980s, both in frontline service and for training.
