M4A4 Sherman V: The workhorse of the Royal Armoured Corps

Aye, which is why it was such a simple suggestion to make, we used near on the entire production run, and we know exactly how it preforms, so it would be a half hour at most to add it to the brit tree, and would definitely be appreciated.

Completely in favour.
I really don’t understand this gaijin mania, the biggest user of the M4A4 was the United Kingdom, the same is also true of the Type-69 IIA, which is in the Chinese tree, which is with the Chinese flag when it is a tank destined for export and it was iraq that used most of them.

Aye, once i get done with these armoured car suggestions, I am going to do one for the m3 GMC, which is mentioned in more or less every armoured car document i have been through as the units Close Support vehicle, as it turns out they were a staple in units up until the literal end of the war in europe. After that i will likely go through the prolific sherman variants, as people tend to forget the british empire used something like 35% of the total sherman production run, including more or less all of the m4 105s and near on every single m4a4

+1 for all British Shermans. Even the 105s they didn’t really want but got anyway.

Silly the UK got the Sherman II instead of this in the first place. +1

the ironic thing is the sherman 2 was rather uncommon compared to the 1, 3 and 5

I’m surprised this isn’t in-game yet, the British were the largest non-American users of the Sherman, and the Sherman V was one of the most prolific variants. +1!

Especially seeing as this variant was made specificically for lend-lease, its just funny that as previously stated the m4a4 we have in game were british ones sold or given to other nations during and post war XD

It would a reason to putt the Sherman II at 3.3 and the V 3.7

Honestly we should have seen the sherman III and I before we got the II, as both were used in much larger numbers, of course all are dwarfed by the V. A folder for them might be most ideal. but all would be greatly appreciated also allowing them to spread them out a bit better in terms of brs

Great Post. I love the data sheets!

Yep, the irony is not lost.

Would love to see at least 2 variants:

  • Sherman V as a tech tree machine.
  • Sherman V (RP-3) as a premium.

+1, it’s a shame this variant has not yet been added

+1, letting you know that some images on your post are broken.

Still amazed we don’t have this. It’s such an easy vehicle to add, considering it’s a copy-paste. Come on Gaijin, this suggestion has been around since the old forum. All that’s needed is:

  • Drop Sherman II to 3.3 and remove T45 ammo.
  • Copy-paste the M4A4 from the Chinese/French tree, and change the name to Sherman V
  • (Optional) Model a pair of RP-3’s onto the turret and sell it as a premium called Sherman V (RP-3)

+1 i am a fan

+1 but I think your images may be broken.

+1, we really need a welded hull Sherman, one with a 75mm gun at 3.7, in the UK tree.
