P 51 tier List

[@cjmpaja]

Considering you included the Ram (which is not a sherman) into the tier list you should've included the M10 wolverine, and the M36/M36B2 since unlike the Ram they use the Sherman chassis (the Ram uses the M3 Lee/Grant chassis)...

[@terik3312]

The reason the Ram doesn't seem shermany is because it isn't. It's based on the M3 Lee (the designation is just missleading)

[@yamatokurusaki5790]

okay you beat me to it :)

[@ObjectPe-]

why was it designated M4A5? shouldn’t it be under the M3 name?

[@NaturalGarethFan]

@@ObjectPe-iirc, it was based on the Lee but made by Australia (or Canada) as an interim equivalent while the M4 was being produced, so its designation is that of a Sherman cause it basically was their version of a Sherman. I can’t remember all the details cause I rarely grind America’s tech tree though

[@LastGoatKnight]

​@@ObjectPe-it wasn't. It was called Infantry tank Ram. The Ram is the Canadian take on upgrading the M3 into better standards. But it would be wwird for a Sherman looking tank to be not called Sherman. And since the USA Shermans are called by their designation they just followed the norm

[@terik3312]

@ObjectPe- the M4A5 has dubious historical precedent as it was supposedly the name the US assigned in on trials, the Canadian name was Tank, Cruiser Ram Mk II

[@jackgamer6307]

The ikea sherman's hull machinegunner is actually an assistant driver. All sherman hull machinegunners are assistant drivers, manning the machinegun is just a secondary role. But gaijin is affraid of the term "assistant driver", and they name every "other" crewman a machinegunner

Fun fact: The M4A2 series was primarily used by the US Marines because it uses a unique diesel engine, which is useful since they largely cooperated with the Navy which used oil and diesel to fuel their ships. In fact, the Marines were extremely adamant in giving up their M4A2s when transitioning to the "Easy Eight" M4A3E8 at the war's end. This diesel engine also probably explains why the M4A2 is the only Sherman found in the Soviet Tech tree, due to Soviet tanks being based around diesel engines.

[@flipallthetables793]

The army saw M4A2s expifically as an export variant of the Sherman. Due to this, the US army never used the M4A2 in Europe, while the UK and USSR made extensive use of it.

[@teolynx3805]

Well soviets didn't rely on diesel tanks only. T-40 (and all that 38's and etc) T-60 and T-70 light tanks and also first series T-34 and KV's and lots of others used petrol engines. TBH I didn't get why at the end M-17 t was swapped out with V2 diesel engine (because said diesel was heavier, more expensive to produce and wasn't better in any aspect and relied on GERMANS fuel system by Bosch which became a huge headache during the war.

[@RainShadow-yi3xr]

@@teolynx3805I think its because they specifically wanted a diesel engine as diesel fuel is harder to ignite, improving the tanks survivability when hit.

[@cyberdroid2300]

My favourite sherman is the Sherman firefly, that tank just has done me well. It keeps on kicking and doesn't complain. It takes out tiger H1's without too much of a kurfaffle and is actually one of the more pleasant gun platforms at that BR e.g. Avenger and Comet (bastards). Overall one of my most pleasant sherman experiences. 5.3 Jumbo was also my favourite thing to play for a while before it got moved up in BR, but jokes on gaijin, I was already playing it in my USA 5.7 lineup, and I STILL LOVE IT. It was the first tank I could play that could shrug off some of the german firepower and boy did I milk that thing for all it's worth, to this day it's still my most played tank.

[@funny_joke_goes_here4406]

I guess it’s just a matter of bias to how well we do in the vehicles, really. I mean I DESPISE the Firefly because it just can’t do the one job it was made to do (destroy tanks) at 4.7. It’s, in my opinion, one of the only vehicles that I will spawn in, immediately think ‘why did I waste spawn points on this?’ and then I will be guaranteed to not have fun.

the italian VC APDS is very useful in uptiers as it can pen panthers and jumbos through the hull which the shot mk8 cannot do, rarely a one shot but if you aim on the right you'll always get gunner/driver and can finish it in a second shot

[@kaih7647]

I disagree on the Skink, Yes, it's completely overtiered (and went up even further recently), but it's one of the only SPAA that is able to survive most strafing runs. Granted, it's not the best SPAA, but far from the worst. Also, its hull MG actually works, which should put it in S tier regardless of anything else.

[@Meczyk]

Agreed. Skink, when used properly as a AA vehicle, is a fun little thing to play :)

[@banananoodles]

​@@Meczyk ironically the skink irl never got to be used for it's intended role lol

[@csaysgrub]

Late reply, but as a cas shitter skinks are some of the most annoying to fight. Most aa (unless they're a good aa main) aren't too hard to take out with hvar splash from range or strafing when they're distracted. Skink denies both of those though, and if they position properly (not in spawn) they can shut off a decent chunk of the map.

[@heretichazel]

IMO the Tipo IC and VC are actually fairly decent as someone who's played them a lot as an italian main, although tbf they're the only fireflies I've played, but from what I can tell they aren't any less mobile than the equivalent IC and VC fireflies in any other tree the IC feels decently more mobile than the VC to me, being 4 or 5 tons less iirc, and at that BR cast hull or not you aren't stopping pretty much anything, so it really only makes a difference against autocannons. It also trades out the ammo rack in the hull next to the driver back for extra crew member, so it's back up to 5 crew rather than the 4 fireflies normally have, so it's actually MORE survivable in my experience Meanwhile the VC trades a bit of mobility, the extra crew member, and .3 BR, for the APDS, which is nice to have as a backup in case you run into anything really heavy or get uptiered, and tbh I find it can still do decent when used at 6.3 due to the sabot

[@Ommonovich]

[@amppari_234]

The M4 IC is one of the best shermans IMO. I got my first nuke in it, in a lineup 2.0 BR's higher than its own. The gun can obliterate most enemies and makes short work of even the German big cats, and the armor is good enough to bounce weaker shots and not to mention, in case of penetration it's more survivable. On top of that, it has the better transmission casing and the armor is 63mm instead 51mm like on the Vc. It's also 4 tons lighter than the Vc and is shorter, allowing for better mobility. On the Vc, frontally there are more weakspots and it's much longer so it's easier to hit, aswell as the Ic having the cast hull front go around making a part of the side stronger, means the Ic *is* harder to penetrate. The Vc also doesn't offer the applique armor on the side. My K/D with it is about 2, which is pretty good, especially compared to the majority of my vehicles, with most hovering at about 1. The ONLY thing better in the Vc really is the APDS. Otherwise it's just worse in every way.

i don't think that the 105 is the king anymore.. now with it moving up to 3.0 it gets uptierd to 3.7 a bit to much, where it becomes very meh, also using the gun is quite tricky at times because of the traverse but also because of the shells it fires, the HE and HEAT are not one shot killers on just about any medium or heavy tank and with the long reload that will get you killed quite often.

M51 being so low is CRIMINAL

[@Deuce_and_a_half]

I can understand it, low Br HEAT is so hit or miss, quite literally. Like you'll hit a lamp bracket on the enemy tank and suddenly the whole round has disappeared into the shadow realm. Couple that with a long reload, and terrible suspension that takes ages to stop the tank from rocking, you'd expect it to be a sniping tank. But the gun has really bad ballistics and the round will detonate on a random bush or fencepost. The only really good thing about it is the mantlet.

[@dxhunter9170]

@Deuce_and_a_half The heat can comfortably 1-2 shot every tank it meets The ballistics? It's round is comparable in speed to an IS2 Survivability? Played hull down, you'll always survive getting shot at and the depression is quite good. M51 is easily one of the strongest machines at its BR

Even some of the later war Shermans don't stand up to as much abuse as this fascinating little critter does!

The biggest issue for 4.0 shermans is italian and german long guns so being on the same team as them and only facing far less penetrating American and Russian tanks is an amazing benefit.

The French M4A1 with an auto loader is an absolute BEAST. I paired it with both EBRs and absolutely run lobbies.

Hands down my favorite sherman is the 76 Jumbo, I was never a fan of it's BR increase but whenever I get tired of playing top tier I go down to 6.3 and remind the german mains why the Jumbo is at 6.3. Such a fun tank to play tbh.

[@HerbaceousM8]

4:44 its better if you go to settings and disable the adjust while braking thing. at least its down to one bounce, instead of the over adjustment and then re aim

15:00 can confirm, a Sheman hull once ate my 128mm AP at center mass

My Sherman: dies from a getting shot in the front by light tank Enemy Sherman: Survives side shot from my tiger.

Zoltan: Talking about calliope rocket ammo problem. 18:38 - I’d RACK-ommend this tank

[@datpieceofbread9570]

It's funny how different the same equipment behaves for different players. Cause I find cast hull Shermans super survivable. So much so that I can regularly bounce panther 75's and tiger 88's. Another example is APDS; I get AMAZING results when they pen

[@KruskBloodBane]

Zoltan the apds is basically a secondary munition, like HE, so take a few like 6-8 for those up tiers when you run into heavier armor the Mk.8 might not be able to work against.

So you think the Russian 122 is bad for the jumbo in war thunder? The kv 122 came out in war thunder mobile this month AND I FIGHT IT SO OFTEN

[@KingEddo8]

The manscaped ad gave me mad nostalgia for the Horrible Histories shouty man skits

[@revan22]

The good point about the apds for the tipo is the ballistics as well, so take a few for long range shots.

[@haroldotrotter9148]

the firefly at least for me has always been a monster. i continued using it until 6.7 when it got replaced by the tortoise. the 17 pounder for me has always been reliable even with apds on the Challenger.

[@Snowy673]

This man has the best ad transitions I’ve ever seen

[@jihost2589]

Even with recent specials the FL10 isnt widely known either, so it's amazing to surprise lower mid BR players with a fast autoloader.

[@FurinaDeFontaine42]

17:20 That tank is the bane of existence for every Enlisted player who plays Axis Normandy.

[@abitofapickle6255]

There is a difference between the cast hull of the OG M4a1 and the rest of the cast hull shermans. The front of the hulls do not have the direct vision ports and they have an increase in thickness. Also cast hulls arent completely bad either. To compensate the reduced protection the hulls were just made thicker to give you the same amount of protection as a welded hull. I personally would love to see the late war M4a1 75 and M4a1 76 hvss for the U.S. tree

BABE WAKE UP! THE NEW ZOLTAN VIDEO DROPPED!!!

[@bigmonke7661]

M4 and M4 mobile Sherman are hands down best shermans you get two tanks at the best BR in game with the add on armor and a .50

[@turgonyurgon]

honestly the M-51 is probably my favorite sherman due to the fact it melts everything and has enough pen to keep in a line up outside of it's tier.

[@arsduk]

They recently upgraded the Italian m4 hybrid so it got much better front hull armor, even though it's cast and rounded. My favourite Sherman to play by now. Especially that it has a very effective Italian premium set up at the 3.7 br

[@pinguspringus8356]

LES GOOOOOOOO NEW SULTAN VIDEO!!!!!!! WE BALLING IT OUT WITH THIS ONE

[@santiagofr88]

Gotta love the french jumbo. So much fun. We need a video like this but t-34s. Nevermind, Gai is the best one

[@Drummercommander]

Completely agree with your list! Love the shout-outs to the planes as well

[@thomasotero3062]

M4a2 at least a tier good gun with stab solid mobility and trolly armor if you keep moving overall the sherman i most enjoyed just above the m4a3 76 and the m4a1

[@TheLostGamerMan]

I have the calliope and I love it. It helped me get thru 3.7-4.0 battle ratings because I was always being shoved into battles against KVs and T-35s losing SL every fucking match

[@CallofDutyBlackOps28]

I call the M4A2 the “commando” Sherman with how much kit it’s got, smoke shells and smoke grenades I’ve hidden entire friendly groups in while tricking an enemy bomber to drop a payload into a blank smoke field.

[@t26e3pershingtank]

Personally, I love the Italian shermans, they're just a blast to play despite their drawbacks, I still occasionally bring them up to 7.7 if I'm looking for an extra bit of suffering, but it's just so rewarding when you get a kill

[@jannezbeda8278]

My favourite is french Sherman (SA50). I think it's a solid A tier with lacking armour, but great mobility and awesome gun (without stabilizer tho).

[@raducristea4116]

I remember the good old day when us 4.7 line up used to be m4a1 76 w, jumbo 75 and m6a1 with the p47d28, trully a bygone era
