About the Actual Vehicle

- The M4 Sherman was a medium tank operated by the U.S. military during World War II. Its performance, coupled with mass production fueled by American industrial power, made it a key contributor to the Allied victory.  

- Various types of this mass-produced tank exist. The M4A3 type, in particular, gained acclaim for its ease of handling and high reliability, equipped with Ford's V8 liquid-cooled gasoline engine.

- The M4A3 featured a welded hull and was produced in types with 75mm, 76.2mm, or 105mm main guns. The 75mm gun variant had both an early model from 1942 and a late model beginning production in 1944. The late model featured a single-piece front armor plate and was equipped with a wet-type ammunition storage with water filling—a distinctive feature. 

- The M4A3 series was the most produced among Sherman tanks and played an active role on many fronts until the end of the war.
