The reason that the T-34 takes so long to load, is because their is no loader in the T34. The Gunner has to do his own loading, or the TC could try to do it for him. But from what I've read, usually the gunner had to lay in, aim, fire, and reload in the early T-34's.

I don't see this being the same problem with the Firefly, as they had a designated loader.

IIRC
Firefly has half the rate of fire of a 75mm Sherman.

The 75mm M3 gun of the Sherman fired several types of ammunition, at a theoretical maximum rate of fire of 20 rounds per minute.
Per
Zaloga, Steven J. Sherman Medium Tank 1942-45 (Osprey Publishing Ltd., 1993) pg.10

So half that is 10 rounds a min.

You do the math.

I think my next wish will be a Jagdtiger now

I knew it!!!! I said it!!!!!

All the vote thing is just a HTC maneuver to get more money this month and cover the cost for the Firefly production!!!!
