M38 Wolfhound/M24. a wheeled chaffee.

Oh boy, they should definitely add this to the game. It reminds me of the French eight-wheeled tank (ebr)

I can see this getting maybe passed to devs if you corrected the weird missinfo about standardizing the chaffee turret and alao explained that the turret was bolted in place.

For now though, it sits and rots.

Just to say, not having the direct gunner sight is actually not weird.

The T49 prototype is from April 1942. The M4 Sherman was first used in 1942. Do you know what the first versions of the Sherman didn’t have?

Early Shermans with the basic M34 gun mount, such as the in game M4A1 and Sherman II, don’t have a direct gunner sight for the gun. The gunner uses his dedicated periscope on top of the turret to aim.

Only in October of 1942 did they create the M34A1 gun mount which provided this sight for the gunner.

In other words, given the time frame of creation of the T49 GMC, it is actually completely plausible that it uses the same system as the early M34 gun mount Shermans do, with the gunner using a periscope on the turret roof to aim the gun.
