The Sentinel AC series was a completely independent development totally unrelated to and preceding the Sherman project. The only similarities were a general use of the same geometry and configuration. The suspension design actually came from a French tank design (as did the designer). The Sentinel AC4 was fitted with a 17 pounder antitank gun a year before the Sherman Firefly was designed (and the Firefly copied the installation used in the Sentinel). The Sentinel was also the first tank to used a unitary cast hull (the entire hull was cast as a single unit and then machined.
You frogot the Egyptian conversations of the M-4A1 and the M-4A3's with the French FL-10 turret with a copy of the German kwk41 75mm gun that was mounted in the Panther?. And the Israeli Super Sherman's?.
If you guys have any topics or vehicles you'd like to see a video about please leave a comment and let me know!

Interesting 🤓
Lots of potential for new War Thunder vehicles

They would've been nice to see, but since the rest of these vehicles are rarer, I'm glad he spent the time on them.
