To the uninitiated, a Sherman tank is a Sherman tank. They are all the same. Well, not exactly. The Sherman was built in a seemingly bewildering number of variants and to make things worse, as improvements were made they were tacked onto tanks undergoing construction without any model number differentiation to tell them from earlier versions.

Though the Sherman wasn't as heavily armed or armored as German heavy tanks, it was built is considerably more numbers, and was a great deal more reliable. Not to say that Shermans could not do well in tank battles, but it was numbers and not firepower that usually knocked out the other tank. Besides, tank on tank battles were a lot more rare than people realize. Most times tanks on one side or another were destroyed by anti-tank guns; either towed or mobile. Even when it was tank on tank, it was usually an ambush that did in the other guy. Eventually the Sherman did get a gun that was the equal of many German versions with the 76mm variant, though that was usually not until later in the war. Many were used by Allied nations, most especially the British and the Russians, who already had the excellent T-34 and later IS-2 tanks. However, a freebie is a freebie so several brigades were outfitted with the Sherman and used in the later stages of the war. One of these tanks is what is provided in this Dragon Armor presentation.
