About the M4A3:
The Medium Tank M4, better known as the Sherman, appeared in various forms throughout
its stellar career with Allied armies. One of the lesser known variants is the
M4A3 (105mm), of which five hundred were manufactured by Detroit Arsenal between
April and August 1944. The 105mm howitzer gun was fitted so that the vehicle
could serve in the close support role, rather than in the usual tank role.
