2205 M4A1 76(w) HVSS
The M4 Sherman medium tank was the main battle tank of the United States during World War II.
It was mass-produced and formed the backbone of the United States armored forces at the time.
Several versions were manufactured.
The first large-scale version was the M4A1, which featured a cast upper hull.
It was armed with the 75mm cannon, which was replaced by the 76mm high-velocity cannon in the later A1 vehicles.
Thanks to its Continental R975 gasoline engine, the tank performed well on and off-road.
The Sherman was reliable and easy to produce in large numbers.
In the 1960s, the Israeli Defense Forces equipped their M4A1 Sherman tanks with the powerful French 105mm CN-105-F1 cannon and designated them the M51.
A muzzle brake was installed to minimize the increased recoil, and a large counterweight was attached to the rear of the turret to compensate for the weight of the long barrel.
The 460 hp diesel engine and the combination of Horizontal Volute Spring Suspension (HVSS) and wider T80 tracks gave the M51 greater mobility.
In the 1967 Six-Day War, the M51s were used against newer T-54/55 tanks and JS-3 tanks of the Egyptian, Iraqi, and Syrian armies, proving their superiority.
