Here's a slightly better view, which is seen in "Fading Front" (documentary) trailer :![[Image: unknowntank.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/26849/unknowntank.jpg) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpY4hQ0Y1Fw I can't say anything defining here, but aren't those tracks used mainly for M4 Sherman ? I've never seen Churchill's with these: ![[Image: adad.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/26849/adad.jpg) ![[Image: a-us-marine-stand-near-the-rear-of-a-sherman-tank-the-marines-have-been-deployed-0fa270-1600.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/26849/a-us-marine-stand-near-the-rear-of-a-sherman-tank-the-marines-have-been-deployed-0fa270-1600.jpg) -- Last edit: 2020-01-08 15:49:40 |

Low bustle turret seems to match Sherman as well:![[Image: late_low_bustle_2.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/26849/late_low_bustle_2.jpg) ![[Image: m4a4-sherman-latrun-6.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/26849/m4a4-sherman-latrun-6.jpg) More info (from the same website mike provided): http://the.shadock.free.fr/sherman_minutia/turret_types/75mm_turrets.html -- Last edit: 2020-01-08 16:20:57 |
