id like the 105mm for the sherman as an option for the main gun. panzerf has many main gun options and the only change would be barrel of the gun i think.

the earlier version sherman has its own niche as the best town killer with its rockets and rapidfire powerful HE round. be interesting to see how the 105mm version would stack up in town destruction.

"The 105mm-armed variants were of limited use against enemy tanks due to the poor anti-armor performance of the howitzer, which was not intended to fight other tanks, though a High Explosive Anti-Tank (HEAT) round for the 105 mm howitzer was available for self-defense."

My theory on the Firefly being left in the hanger: because is a slow compared to other tanks, and the optics, gun, and armor offer little over a M4/76.  At longer ranges (2000+ yards), the Firefly holds a true advantage, but in AH those ranges are not as common as the under 1400 yards ranges.

I would love to use the firefly for 2k shots, but you rarely ever get a chance to fire over 1400 unless the map has hills
