M4A2 Sherman


History

The M4A2 Sherman is a early Sherman variant, introduced in January of 1942, which improves greatly on the base chassis of the M4A1. Besides a new engine and transmission, which also increases reverse speed, it has received more sturdy fenders, a much better protected gun mantlet that increases the survival rate of hits to the turret face a lot, a new coaxial gun (which the previous M4A1 lacked) and the inclusion of a brand new Heater built in. The M4A2 is able to support infantry a lot more than the previous A1 models while keeping the decent anti tank capabilities.
Though after mid 43 its capabilities fall off steeply since the new medium and heavy tanks it is encountering in Alaska have far better armour than the gun can feasibly pierce. This also made the army choose to prioritize the development of new armour piercing shells which soon got delivered to the troops.

After the later introduction of more upgraded shermans that put the M4A2 out of direct combat duty, a lot of their hulls were modified into troop carriers and still carried on serving at the front line.

About the Project
The Pacific Front is a Alternate History Project about the time from 1940s through to the 70s in a time of turmoil, war and desperation. It focuses on the countries around the pacific ocean, like the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Russia, China and a lot more. All the the project vehicles are fictional in nature and have their own story, lore and design. The Projects creations have a tendency for high fidelity, decoration and multi crew operation.
