Description
A ragdoll of the HD M4 Improved as it appears in World of Tanks.

Turret and main cannon are ragdolled. The various hatches on the tank as well as the frontal and turret machineguns are rigged and can be moved with a bone tool. Back tools, side spare tracks and both tracks are bodygrouped and can be removed.

A project to create an improved version of the original M4 Sherman tank submitted by Aberdeen in 13 March, 1942. It possessed thicker, sloped armor plates to improve protection, as well as an improved engine, which required use of the HVSS suspension from the M6 Heavy tank. However, due to the new components required, the tank production was cancelled.

I love this tank, hate aberdeen (any plans in the future for the T14 heavy tank? thanks)

UPDATE:
Redid the model with improved dimensions, improved textures, added 3d tracks and a separate track link model.

Probably about as good as a regular M4 would have in it's time period. While the armor and engine upgrades were significant, the 75mm M3 cannon was still insuficient for long range combat against the most powerful german tanks.

Also upgrading this tank next with HD tracks and redone model.

i wonder how this one would have worked against the german tanks if it had been built.

As you can see by the schematics, it was a paper proposal that never went anywhere.
