This tank is accepted to scold so much in vain. As soon as he is called - Clap-Uroyd, three-story overgrowth (weapons on it were really located in three tiers) and even shame of American tank construction. During the Great Fatherland, the Soviet Tankists folded the mockery chastushka on the melody from the popular movie Volga-Volga: How America has gave Em three Es noise, a lot of sense, the height came to heaven!
EM Three ES - the American average tank M3, known in the West under two names: General Lee and General Grant , - I did not like it in the Red Army and did not fit. But was he so bad in fact? The Americans themselves almost did not fight on it - created in a terrible hurry, for some 60 days, from everything that turned out to be at hand, M3 became a bridge to the famous Sherman, - but the British had to host. And, unlike its Soviet colleagues, they were satisfied with the overseas car. What is not surprising - another host theater, other operator conditions and the level of crew training. British tankers who have imbued with their constantly breaking cruising tanks were delighted with the reliability of the Grand Program. In addition, a 75-mm gun allowed to effectively deal with all types of German armored vehicles used in Africa in 1941-1942. Well, the Japanese Ha-th and Chi-ha grants and Lee chased in Burma and Indonesia until 1945! The new book of the leading military historian proves that, contrary to mutual myths, the average tank M3 is not shame, but the unconditional success of the US young tank construction. Literally from scratch, the Americans managed to create a full-fledged combat machine, well protected and armed. Yes, not without flaws, but who has no them! Our T-34 in 1941 there were no less if no more! So do not mock this tank, which in a certain sense can be considered the great-grandfather Abrams .
