Description
The M4 Sherman medium tank was, without a doubt, the most widely produced and deployed armoured vehicle of World War II. The M4 formed the backbone of American armoured forces and was manufactured in numerous versions and variants. The Sherman "Wet" was developed during the tank's operational service to reduce the risk of fire, which was a common issue in early production models. Introduced in 1944, it featured redesigned and repositioned fuel tanks to minimise the likelihood of explosions and fires. The adoption of fuel tanks immersed in a propylene glycol solution, hence the name "Wet", proved to be an effective solution. Crews appreciated the increased reliability and survivability in combat. The Sherman "Wet" was extensively used on the European front during the final stages of World War II.
