As info, this was never used by the French. The tanks fought with the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) as the Sherman M-51 during the Six Day War ('67) and the Yom Kippur War ('73). It used a French F1 105mm gun and a modified T23 turret mounted on a M4A1 Sherman chassis. It performed quite well for an obsolete tank and was able to pen T54/55/T62s.
In real life in world war 2 this tank was the same as on the game with very thin armor easy to pin. The allied forces used these tanks to fight German panzer, tiger, and panther tank divisions. Every German tank I just named also has way thicker armor and a way bigger gun than this tank, yet this tank was beloved by allied forces and a huge reason we won the war.
This tank is definitely shit. I feel bad for people who spent $45 on an M4 that see's obj 704's. Tank will need a serious buff to even be considered worthwhile. 350 alpha minimum buff for this to make it relevant.
Dark Magician Girl the people who spend are just tank collectors or newbs who see a shiny tank and say I want it even know I don't know what I'm doing with it
Wouldn’t say it’s shit, but it’s not op by any means. But yes, some additional alpha would be nice, considering it gets heaps more on pc. If it was so bad I wouldn’t be able to manage 2.2k average damage / 70 wr
I met a poor lad who was using one of these and tried to 1 v 1 me in my black dog. We were both isolated and trying to cap the med route, and well it didn't end well for him. He was too aggressive and I was able to get side shots with my German HESH. I tried to tell him he shouldn't have gone alone and referred him to this video. Funnily enough he said " Bushka sucks. " RIP Bushka. He must hate Aussies.
played a game with a guy who had one and it's awesome. I really love the m4 and the m4a3e2. this tank reminds me of those tanks. great video. p. s. bushka I really like your videos and use to watch your live stream but some of your mods are quit rude. nothing against you cause I think you're great. your videos have really improved a beginner player like me to the point I am decent. tanks and Gday.
Ok, I am an M4 FANATIC. I have every single version and camo that wg has ever put out for it and they have done an enormous diservice to the Super Sherman. If they are going to shaft it by giving it such slow reload time and the absolute worse armor ever in tier 8 med, they can at least give the damn thing superior pen with the alpha but no, that IS 6 was a freaking tomato, hell even the other french tank in the second game had a bunch of red on it from the front and on the turret. I refuse to pay for such a neutered tank even if it is an M4 variant. I have so looked forward to them releasing this tank only to be massively disappointed by how bad they have screwed this tank. The 105 that the French engineers placed on the super Sherman was designed specifically to be able to pen the IS3, that was the design parameters but wg couldn't even get that right here.
Good review! I have it, it's pretty good. Don't get shot though. Might teach some of the bad players, how to play better. Or they will have a bad win rate driving into the open with this tank.
Who else heard about the t110e3 nerf as if that tank wasn't bad enough and the new map? Edit: they're also buffing the stuer emil's amour (idk why cause it's still paper) oh and guess what, in typical war gaming fashion they're buffing the is1 and is2(1945) in they're accuracy (saw this coming from lights years away) and they are improving the terrain resistance on both of the black prince's tracks so hope for better track traverse. Edit 2:they're nerfing the reload on the t110e3 and the hitpoints by 100 like wtf wg
i dont understand why its a 105mm but wargaming decided to give it a 310 alpha, and its not like 350 alpha would be op at tier 8, it would balance out the tank completely
Cheski: You misunderstood my post. The game is full of medium/light tank players who's first move is to retreat from their flank and hide behind the heavies. The whole idea behind lights and mediums and heavies and tank destroyers is to give the battle different dimensions but now you generally have everyone scrambling behind and around the heavies. This parasitic behavior nullifies any advantage that the lights and mediums bring to the game. Watch any good medium or light player and you'll see them spotting, flanking and racing around the battle helping flanks. Basically, light and medium tank players should have the most difficult roles to fill bc they are expected to be first responders when the shit hits the fan.
Dat: The faster and lighter tanks nullify any advantage they bring when they hide behind heavies. Good light/medium players can use their advantages to defeat the best heavy tanks. I know bc it happens when I face good light/medium enemies.
There are also cases where nothing can be done to flank. Mainly because the enemy team is also hiding behind their heavies so any chance you have to flank them gets removed because their meds will nuke you.
I think it would be much nicer if they’d give it 350 alpha (full 105mm alpha) and lower the rounds per minute so the dpm stays roughly the same That would make it stand out more from the "standard" t8 med and would make it a great peek a boo tank
1 year later, it’s 5k gold with 30 days premium plus an alpha buff. I don’t see the comparison to the Firefly though because that has no gun depression which significantly changes how you can play it.
Nov 26, Week before Black Friday, This tank has been buffed to 438 Alpha-350 Average. It comes as a pop-up offer for 5K gold; Tank, 30 Days Premium, all Equipment Slots unlocked.
Wow.... I thought this was gonna be a French tier 6 Sherman!! But a tier 8 for 45$?!?! Darn this!!!!!!! And also bushka where in the world is your t-34-3 review?!
Just got this tank today. Been wanting it for awhile but it hasn't been for sale and luckily I seen it up for sale today for 5000 gold witch is a de and a half for me lol. The armour definitely sucks, but if you are a good driver and can avoid getting in front of the guns of heavy tanks and tank destroyers that have big gun, then you'll be right bc I usually bully alotn of other mediums and light tanks with it except for like the super Pershing lol it's just to big for any medium tank to bully it 😂. I also bought the is3 defender bc it and the new mk1 defender and the t28 defender are for sale but the is3 and t28 but there are only 2 more premiums that i want right now and that is the smasher, and the obj 252u bc it's a beast of a Russian heavy tank and I have pretty much all the is tanks from Russia witch is very similar to the obj 252u.
I’m a fan of the M4 line of tanks, love the Sherman and the firefly and the easy 8 and the jumbo, and I even have the fury tank and love it too! But as soon as I seen this I didn’t like the idea of that hull in tier 8! It’s just not enough at tier 8! I used to have to fight tier 8 in my fury tank and it was rough! I couldn’t imagine what tier 9 are like in that hull! The gun on it is nice but so are a lot of tier 8 guns
Glen Oxman are you kidding me...ur a heavy tank, ofc he has trouble penning you. That aside Jphanter has the EXACT SAME GUN with FASTER RELOAD. Not to mention it's one tier lower. Can't believe WG charge $50 for this sht
This is an interesting tank. I can say that it’s a circumstantial tank, and you have to watch out for tanks like the T49, which will HE pen you from the front. I’m quite a passive player myself, and it suits me, but it’s very unforgiving. Aggressive play will usually get you killed. Hull is weak, turret is yeah nah maybe. The best thing is probably the alpha, with HE it’s a killer. Overall, a decent, actually BALANCED tank, and worth it if you like your tanks, and think you I’ll play it well. Don’t expect to do 4K every game :D
Hello I have a good replay which i don't know if I broke the world record but my match lasted only 1 minute and 35 seconds if we ignore the 7 seconds at the end where you have to wait till the results pop up basically i just wanted to send this replay to you but i dont know if you have an email or something like that so please if you see this answer me if possible thank you 😋
fatin israq but it has crap dpm,crap and bad pen so you can't really make use of the 400 alpha unless your on flat terrian (t34-2 is a support tank btw)
It's a little too expensive for what it is, but would have bought it if it had an Israeli plain sand yellow legendary camo (this tank fought in the 1956 Arab-Israeli war.)
As info, this was never used by the French. The tanks fought with the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) as the Sherman M-51 during the Six Day War ('67) and the Yom Kippur War ('73).

That muzzle break is what gets me all the time.. Look at the beauty at the end of the gun.. So threatening.
In real life in world war 2 this tank was the same as on the game with very thin armor easy to pin. The allied forces used these tanks to fight German panzer, tiger, and panther tank divisions. Every German tank I just named also has way thicker armor and a way bigger gun than this tank, yet this tank was beloved by allied forces and a huge reason we won the war.

Wouldn’t say it’s shit, but it’s not op by any means. But yes, some additional alpha would be nice, considering it gets heaps more on pc. If it was so bad I wouldn’t be able to manage 2.2k average damage / 70 wr
Or at least give it the 390 alpha it has o pc, give it a better chance of peek a boom
id rathet have the old pc version that had 6 gun depression and 390 alpha.
I have same views about this shit.
I'm not spending $45 for a tier 8
Jatz s
The is5 is meh for me but it ok
Lets put in in the blender :)
Both of you shut the hell up I dont care about your websites you use
Such a unique tank with a tier 5 tank hull at tier 8 with the tier 8 gun
Player_7362923157 On Blitz
Just like AMX CDC
Yep
One common boi except tankenstein is tier 7 with tier 7 and 8 components
@One common boi and su100y 130mm gun
Aug 26 2019 7500 gold fully loaded with cool skin
Bob Rattray ya why isn’t anyone doing a review on it?
m4a1 ravioli
the canon tip alone is worth the cost this is a sweet tank to roll in i love it lots a fun the boom stick is just sick
Just get IS5. Really worth it for just 5 dollars lol.
The Indomitable fully agree and a hell of a lot better, mate wtf wargaming not a chance I'm spending money on a French tank anyway lmfao
Thomas Davies is5 is better than most tier 8 premiums period because russian bias.
Btw the ru251 HE can pen u through the front
CaptainJackSparrow * RU has highest HE pen of the tier
I know I’m just pointing it out
CaptainJackSparrow * I know I'm just backing your point up, no hate😁
No worries mate good luck on the battlefield
CaptainJackSparrow * you too
It's a beautiful tank to look at
So whenever your spotted in a tank in WoTB, about 10 seconds is how long it takes to go unspotted?
I met a poor lad who was using one of these and tried to 1 v 1 me in my black dog. We were both isolated and trying to cap the med route, and well it didn't end well for him. He was too aggressive and I was able to get side shots with my German HESH. I tried to tell him he shouldn't have gone alone and referred him to this video. Funnily enough he said " Bushka sucks. " RIP Bushka. He must hate Aussies.
Allyssa Hernandez ?lololol
Epic Fail WoTB The German bulldog does.
same with ru251
it's not actually HESH it's HE plastic but yea lol on ru251 and black dog have
Epic Fail WoTB it's called hep(high explosive plastic) similar to it's British brother hesh (high explosive swash head)
Finally! Was waiting for your video on this. Thanks Bushka!!
For sure a good Tank, for me personal to expensive, thanks Bushka for the Review. The "Thing" the End of the Barrel is the Muzzle Break!😜🔥💪👋
I really like the playstyle of this tier 8 French prem tank... It's different..
played a game with a guy who had one and it's awesome. I really love the m4 and the m4a3e2. this tank reminds me of those tanks. great video. p. s. bushka I really like your videos and use to watch your live stream but some of your mods are quit rude. nothing against you cause I think you're great. your videos have really improved a beginner player like me to the point I am decent. tanks and Gday.
also thumbs up on this video.
Waiting for the review on the T-34-3 have not seen one by bushka
Hasn’t he already did it? It’s the same as the T-34-2
Meh, I'd rather just wait for the Lorraine or Amx1557
Need a turret armor buff so you could play it like an M4
YES EXACTLY!!!......oooops the M4 Maniac kinda broke through
Not worth the gold
@Noman Rashid dont spend money on this game it not worth your money
Game not worth playing. Already overwhelmed by idiots.
It could be a sniper though?
Does anyone know how many Sherman in blitz..it's getting a little stupid now
Ok, I am an M4 FANATIC. I have every single version and camo that wg has ever put out for it and they have done an enormous diservice to the Super Sherman. If they are going to shaft it by giving it such slow reload time and the absolute worse armor ever in tier 8 med, they can at least give the damn thing superior pen with the alpha but no, that IS 6 was a freaking tomato, hell even the other french tank in the second game had a bunch of red on it from the front and on the turret.

The 105 that the French engineers placed on the super Sherman was designed specifically to be able to pen the IS3, that was the design parameters but wg couldn't even get that right here.
2:57 only an Aussie would say end of the nozzle 😂
Just follow the cool kids and call it the M4 Ravioli
7:28 How you get the blue shining camo? It was years ago released only once.
Good review!
I have it, it's pretty good.
Don't get shot though.
Might teach some of the bad players, how to play better. Or they will have a bad win rate driving into the open with this tank.
Who else heard about the t110e3 nerf as if that tank wasn't bad enough and the new map?
Edit: they're also buffing the stuer emil's amour (idk why cause it's still paper) oh and guess what, in typical war gaming fashion they're buffing the is1 and is2(1945) in they're accuracy (saw this coming from lights years away) and they are improving the terrain resistance on both of the black prince's tracks so hope for better track traverse.
Edit 2:they're nerfing the reload on the t110e3 and the hitpoints by 100 like wtf wg
Keegan Savary really? That's so dumb instead of nerfing tanks maybe buff the underpowered tanks. Maybe add new tanks and what not
Keegan Savary im to angry to druve me e3 because of its nerf.
MR. giavonnie I was surprised too
Keegan Savary so that the already awful Emil wont be HE pennable frontally to compensate really slow-firing tier 9 gun.
Sosa Foo powercreep
It's hard to wrap my head around the fact that its winter in august for bushka, lol. Southern hemisphere seasons are weird.
i love bushkas reviews
i dont understand why its a 105mm but wargaming decided to give it a 310 alpha, and its not like 350 alpha would be op at tier 8, it would balance out the tank completely
Just what the game needs! Another medium that can't spot or push. Another medium that will get in the way, hiding behind the heavies.
Finally, someone said it, and a Frenchy at that?! Well hopefully they'll just collect dust sitting in collectors and M4 fanboys garages.
Cheski: You misunderstood my post. The game is full of medium/light tank players who's first move is to retreat from their flank and hide behind the heavies.

Watch any good medium or light player and you'll see them spotting, flanking and racing around the battle helping flanks. Basically, light and medium tank players should have the most difficult roles to fill bc they are expected to be first responders when the shit hits the fan.
Gee, it's almost like heavies have better guns and armor and get the job done better when they finally get to the front line.
Dat: The faster and lighter tanks nullify any advantage they bring when they hide behind heavies. Good light/medium players can use their advantages to defeat the best heavy tanks. I know bc it happens when I face good light/medium enemies.

That would make it stand out more from the "standard" t8 med and would make it a great peek a boo tank
Should have 350 alpha, especially with that reload
1 year later, it’s 5k gold with 30 days premium plus an alpha buff.
I don’t see the comparison to the Firefly though because that has no gun depression which significantly changes how you can play it.
Is it worth buying?
what do you think about e 25 came to shop?
Nov 26, Week before Black Friday, This tank has been buffed to 438 Alpha-350 Average. It comes as a pop-up offer for 5K gold; Tank, 30 Days Premium, all Equipment Slots unlocked.
I prefer the CDC. You still get he but it is just so fast
How does this compare to the Firefly? If I like the firefly will I enjoy this tank?
The first replay was amazing hahahaha
Doesn't the Revolver have only -8° of depression, though? Or was that changed before it went from the supertest?
What do you guys know about the 5.2 update? When is it comming to wotb?
This tank isn’t worth 45$. For 25$ you can get the E 25 which is worth it.
Wow.... I thought this was gonna be a French tier 6 Sherman!! But a tier 8 for 45$?!?! Darn this!!!!!!! And also bushka where in the world is your t-34-3 review?!
Re-Val-Or-Ees-Ay Bushka
This tank is 8500 gold right now
What about the T-55 A ? When is it releasing? I've only seen one seems like a T-54
on pc it's a german t54 basically because the t55 is historically basically the same thing as a t54
I hope they add the swedish heavy tank tech tree :/
King Tiger I wish they would add the Swedish tds too
I wish they would add the cent a/x and actually make it a tech tree tank
Was wondering when this was coming. lol
that was me in the 1st game wahooooo thanx bushka it was only my 2nd game in that tank. its not great tank though but surely better than the 59 patton
This tank needs the tier 9-10 medium 105 alpha of 350. Why only 310?
Hey bushka, do u know if a less equipment heavy package for this tank might come out?
Its like a tier 8 firefly with gun depression
Just got this tank today. Been wanting it for awhile but it hasn't been for sale and luckily I seen it up for sale today for 5000 gold witch is a de and a half for me lol. The armour definitely sucks, but if you are a good driver and can avoid getting in front of the guns of heavy tanks and tank destroyers that have big gun, then you'll be right bc I usually bully alotn of other mediums and light tanks with it except for like the super Pershing lol it's just to big for any medium tank to bully it 😂.

Thanks for all your vids u helped a lot with my America TD lines
Every time I see your intro I want the 54 ltwt every time
Great video. I always learn a lot. What webpage or app was he using at 6:45ish to see the weak spot scenarios? Thanks
Hey Bushka, where is your replay link? I have a ST I battle for you, it's pretty great.
I wish they gave it 350 alpha, because on the PC variant it has a massive 390 alpha
I love seeing this tank in my borsig. Easy HE pen for the 960 alpha
Im still waiting for the ST-A 2...
Has to good dispersion on movement
Woo! The ravioli!
I’m a fan of the M4 line of tanks, love the Sherman and the firefly and the easy 8 and the jumbo, and I even have the fury tank and love it too!

Nice! I can imagine you like exclamation points! Not meaning to offend you though!
It's rubbish, I annihilated one in my Lowe, wasn't even difficult. The thing has no armour at alll, it couldn't pen me. Don't waste your money guys!
Glen Oxman are you kidding me...ur a heavy tank, ofc he has trouble penning you. That aside Jphanter has the EXACT SAME GUN with FASTER RELOAD. Not to mention it's one tier lower. Can't believe WG charge $50 for this sht
I'm not kidding

Dark Exile Gaming what’s your in game name
freddynbonnie 13 on Asia server , how about you
All high tier as well, we all know this rarely happens, usually prems are low tier.
So... Its got a neat muzzle brake... And.... Um.... A neat muzzle brake...
That was quick!
I was waiting for a review!!!
Beautiful tank!
Can you review the Sherman Firefly?
Did anyone notice blitz gave a description of the tank and how to play it?!
It needs a serious buff and only rank collectors will buy it.
Anyone else see the Scorpion G in the blitz stars tank compare.
My god I would love to see that tank enter the game
Bushka pleaaaase! Make a tutorial on how to play the ARL V39! It’s so hard! I can’t figure out how to play it
Chiestnick super , move like a medium , shot and hide like a TD and stay behind your allies
Chiestnick Super its easy... Its hard when you flank like a lt... Tank with turret lest less armor should be a snipe....
the tank be it well but still and always it is too expensive but hey and used to WG
Everyone knows it’s a P.O.S. Not worth the $43 + tax. Wait for a buff or price reduction
Hey Buska, do you think this tank is worth 50$?
Hardwork bushks❤🙏
Hello I have a good replay which i don't know if I broke the world record but my match lasted only 1 minute and 35 seconds if we ignore the 7 seconds at the end where you have to wait till the results pop up basically i just wanted to send this replay to you but i dont know if you have an email or something like that so please if you see this answer me if possible thank you 😋
tell WG to buff bad tank pls
Bushman it has the same armor as the M4
you are wrong bushka. you said 310 alpha is large for t8 mt but t-34-2 has 400 alpha gun.
fatin israq but it has crap dpm,crap and bad pen so you can't really make use of the 400 alpha unless your on flat terrian (t34-2 is a support tank btw)
Bushka, in the last replay that guy meant to kill the AT7 last
Nope he was just being a jerk :D
I know it cus I was the guy sending that replay in ^^
Thanks for the review was waiting for this.
Call me out when ISU 130 comes out and Scorpian
I need to get shacked, so I’m buying this tank
shagged*
The medium version of the st Emil
Can you do a video on pz Vl tier 5 German tank
Was that Thrasher letters?
Bushka i just got a 5.9k damage game but can i send via wot recorder
M4 Baguette
Just call it the M4A1 Ravioli
Hmm...how does that all ammo fit on the tank... lol
Sergio González Torres isn’t it obvious? They sit on the ammo xD
When the tank gets ammoracked then RIP crew
It's a little too expensive for what it is, but would have bought it if it had an Israeli plain sand yellow legendary camo (this tank fought in the 1956 Arab-Israeli war.)
Bushka you might want to call it the ravioli, easier to pronounce
How can you get super test.
A tier 8 firefly interesting but not worth spending money on.
Ima get dat boi m4a1 revelorsè
