The most common British tank in the latter part of WWII it was supplied under the Lend-Lease programme to Great Britain as the M4A4 and renamed the Sherman V by its new owners. The Sherman V would be the mainstay of the British and Polish armoured units (and was also used by the Free French). The only downside was a high silhouette, but the Sherman made up for this with its reliability, ruggedness and numbers. Armed with a 75mm gun and two .30 cal Machine Guns, the Sherman V could handle itself just fine.
