+1 for the UK, be a nice addition

-1 absolutely unnecessary and removes the uniqueness of one of the best US vehicles, it’s already bad enough that Italy gets it, but they at least used it and this ultimately has no place in the British tree

It’s a T70. It’s a worse M18. It’s more Unique than the M18. Also China gets an M18.

-1, not British and only evaluated. Just as bad as adding MiG or Typhoon to USA

+1 as Event vehicle, there is no need for this to be a purchaseable Premium.
Great suggestion though, I look forward to seeing other obscure Lend-Lease test vehicles put forward such as the T26E3!
Once again for the hard of hearing or understanding; M18/T70 is a Tank Destroyer, not a Light Tank.

Hmmm let’s see, a conversion made by the US using a US designed tank with a both hull and turret being US made with only the gun being British, authorised for serial production and service use by the US and only stopped because the war was ending, with a total of 80 produced versus a foreign vehicle that was TRIALED only and REJECTED…considering that, why are you even bringing up my other comment?
Because it removes the uniqueness of one of the best UK vehicles, it’s already bad enough that Italy gets it, but they at least used it and this ultimately has no place in the American tree

Damn this sounds familiar, I wonder where I’ve heard something like this before 🤔

I’d agree if the US Firefly was a complete copy paste, or a trialed vehicle, but it isn’t, it’s a unique modification which makes it a far better addition than the suggested T70 or anything similar
Is the T70 in the American tree right now? Last I checked they have the M18. with 50 more horsepower and some other stuff.
The T70 is Unique because it is a prototype same as how the Sherman IVCY is unique because it is a prototype.
I fail to see your point here.
that is a unique modification, never heard of such a mix of Sherman parts before. Its also the first official tank of Denmark which is pretty historically significant. While T70 GMC is a fully American design, that was only ever evaluated by the UK
Yeah having less HP doesn’t make it unique, it would just be a derated M18 like how the Black Cat was for a few months, sitting at the same BR and being objectively worse. The US Firefly is unique because it would have significantly better mobility and armor.
Besides that, the major point here that this is a trialed vehicle which have absolutely no place in the game, otherwise you could add most German WW2 vehicles to the US, give most WW2 US vehicles to Britain and Russia etc. slowly but surely completely killing any differences between nations.

RAM and Skink in the US tree are sweating in a corner so hard rn

India and Yugoslavia also used A3E4’s
That’s due to strange things involving the same vehicle under the same flag being placed in two trees. The “M4A5” should be replaced by the real Ram II the Americans tested or be removed. Skink is a different story. Neither tested nor wanted and yet it has the Star roundel to denote it is a US vehicle despite it also being under the Canadian flag. But. Cest la vie.
And the T70 would have worse mobility and armour. Like… what more do you want me to say here?
