No that was the M3 tank with a 75 mm in a side sponson and a 37 mm in a revolving turret.  A british version of that tank without the commanders 30 cal MG turret was called the Grant.

Or a funnier answer..

YES It was.  It was painted bright orange and had a 01 on the doors.

Is this the vehicle the allies dubbed the "The General Lee" in the africa campaign?
Not that I know of i thought the General Lee was the "M3 Lee" the tank with 1 37 in turret and 75mm on right side of the tank.

I might be wrong and I am 99.9% sure I am, but hey I tried.

:rofl LOL, I want the M18 too, but think about it, this addition of the M3 as a gun platform really does have a lot in common with the M18....

Both are fast
Both are lightly armored
Both can be killed with machine guns

That creates a mental image so sick it's tempting to get a model of the M3 Lee and do it up in exactly that style, just to be ridiculous.

I was thinking the same thing.  If it has the fast rate of fire as it historically did (20-30 rounds a minute), then it will be great for roastin' weenies and making smores.  :D
