The M4 Sherman tank was the mainstay of the Western allies between
1942 and 1945. Fast and modern it was a big success and was
transported as far afield as Russia and North Africa. The American
Chief of Staff claimed in November 1943 it was 'hailed widely as
the best tank on the battlefield today...'. However, by the
Normandy invasion of June 1944 this was not the case: the new
German heavy tanks such as the Panther and Tiger were completely
outclassing the Sherman. This title covers the M4 version armed
with the 76 mm gun, examining developments such as the HVSS
suspension, using much new archive material.
