YAY, were gettin the Sherman!!!!!!1 question reguarding it though. When i looked at the pics of the Sherman they were devolping, the gun seemed bigger then the 75 mm equipped to it in real life. Is this just my eyes, or am i right?:confused:

That's a Sherman Firefly.  It's a WWII British Sherman modification, mounting a 17-pounder gun.  This gun had better armour penetration capabilities (with APDS shot) than the Kwk 43 long 88mm gun in the King Tiger.  Some sources say it was a bit less accurate however.
