    I never knew there were M4A3E8/105s!

    Edit: messed up the 3 and the 4, made it look a bit silly

    They fitted a lot of tanks with low velocity artilary pieces as infantry support weapons. The 105mm is not an AT gun

    That's the person standing in front of the tank - can you see the likeness?

    I knew of the existence of the M4/105, but I never knew they actually made some specimens of this support weapon with the new Easy Eight suspension.

    erm, what difference does the suspension make? If it fitted the old one, it would presumably fit the new one?

    Yes but as far as I know, not many HVSS suspensions were made, most being outfitted with the 76mm gun.
