M4a3 Sherman [US] | WWII Tank

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As always, turn “Infinite Fuel” and “Infinite Electric” off!

No one knew 1945 would be the end of the Second World War, everyone guessed there was at least another year of fighting left. The German resistance was growing incredibly radical, with everyone throwing everything they had at the Allied troops. Spearheading into Germany was American armor, made mostly of war-weathered M4 Shermans. Although classified as "Medium Tanks" they were thrown at any obstacle, whether they could penetrate it or not, from Africa and the Pacific to the Soviet Union. The replica model of the Sherman, the M4a3, was deployed frequently to western Germany, home of some of the grittiest tank fighting of the war. Though the German army made its last offensive in the fateful Christmas of 1944, its Panzer and Tiger divisions were still going strong. Casualties among tank crews were incredibly high as the closing winter of 1945 trudged on into spring. One of the biggest issues was the lack of penetration power against the heavily armored German tanks. Attempts to fix this evolved the M4a3 into the M4a3E8, a 76mm upgrade with the stopping power to blow the face off of a turret. The British counterpart, the Fairy Firefly, boasted similar power. Despite this, higher-power Sherman numbers were few and the less powerful Shermans continued to enter the slaughter in the forests near and in the Rhine where ambushes by tanks, the SS, and Hitler Youth were common. This continued until the dumbstruck Americans walked into Berlin, far ahead of schedule and nearly side-by-side with the Soviets. With Iwo Jima and Okinawa ending the ground action in Japan, and some touch-and-go moments in Korea, the American Sherman reached the end of its journey. However, it has been immortalized by many surviving units, movies like Fury, and books like Spearhead. The tank itself was later replaced by the M26 Pershing, whose 90mm gun stunned the world when it threw a shell into the side of a Panther D, only for it to come out the other side. A few late-model Shermans found themselves in the hands of the tinkering Israelis and saw action into the Cold War.

There are a LOT of Shermans, and a few M4a3 Shermans. I'm pretty sure this is the base model, but I might be wrong. It was also difficult to make 1:1 and fit everything, Stormworks really doesn't like small replicas. Like any tank in this game, don't expect it to survive much, use the "look first shoot first" doctrine to win. I was challenged to make a good looking accurately-sized Sherman, and I think I did pretty well. Anyways, hope you enjoy! It's my pleasure to flesh out history in a way you'll enjoy it, looking good, easy to understand, and fun to use.
