Название: British Sherman Tanks Автор: Dennis Oliver Издательство: Concord Publications Серия: Concord 7062 ISBN: 9623611315 Год издания: 2006 Язык: English Cтраниц: 74 Формат: PDF Размер: 32 MB
There are few more famous WWII tanks than the M4 Sherman. It was arguably the most important tank of the war - if only in terms of numbers built. Over 40,000 were produced by eleven US manufacturers. The Sherman was also to become the mainstay of the British Army's armored force, with the first 252 vehicles arriving in North Africa in time for the Second Battle of El Alamein. These tanks had been stripped from a U.S. division and shipped across the dangerous waters of the Atlantic. This book traces the Sherman in British Army use from those early days in North Africa, through to the final days of WWII in Germany itself. In between are the campaigns waged in Italy, France and Northwest Europe, and even a small section on Burma. Interestingly, with their penchant for naming tanks, it was the British that christened the M4 as the Sherman , and the moniker has famously stuck. In the introduction the author gives a brief description of all the types used by the UK, including the modified Firefly with its 17pdr gun, a variant that was unique to the British.
