M4 Sherman

The M4A1 Sherman is a medium tank designed and produced by the United States of America. It proved extensive and effective use during the Second World War in the Pacific and Eastern theaters.

Battlefield 1942
The Sherman is a vehicle that spawns at American controlled flags.

Battlefield 1943
In Battlefield 1943, the Sherman spawns at certain USMC controlled flags. It has coaxial machine gun for the driver's anti-infantry needs and a main cannon for heavier targets such as other tanks or environment all at the driver's disposal. Another soldier can take a role as tank commander to have an M1919 Browning for some extra anti-infantry power.

The Sherman (along with the Chi-Ha ) is the only vehicle able to knock down trees simply by driving into them.

Trivia

 * In Battlefield 1943, the Sherman is a direct equivalent (in stats) to the Type 97 Chi-Ha. In real life, the M4A1 was far superior to the Chi-Ha.
