Description
The M4 Sherman is an American medium tank, developed from the previous M3 Lee. It was made to adress the flaws of the M3 Lee, such as the 75mm main gun being relocated to one main turret, instead of being in a casemate in the hull. This is the M4A4 VC Firefly variant, made in 1944 and used by the British, which features a welded hull, removed hull machine gun, and a modified turret housing a British 17 Pounder gun, made to fight very heavily armored vehicles such as the Tiger 1 and Tiger 2.

(Update: added the ability to switch between manual and powered turret traverse using auxiliary, and rebalanced the gun)

although i might try to incorporate a system to switch between hand cranked and powered traverse
Dach  [author] 17 Apr @ 1:19pm 
and the turret traverse system is how powered traverse is irl, so its more realistic than most stuff
Dach  [author] 17 Apr @ 1:17pm 
not easily, you would have to redo some of the logic for it to work correctly
