Let's Remember When the Army Equipped This WWII Tank With Rocket Launchers

Why am I picturing a Godzilla movie brother Robert ;-)

Great share brother Robert

This was actually the second child. The first borne was a Sherman with a fighter plane underwing 5” rocket rail on the side of her turret. Railing at ineffective ability against German armor, a tank commander was saying how easy it was for fighters to kill and the pilot he was complaining to, suggested jury-rigging rockets. You can’t make this crap up. Keeping in mind that five inches is roughly 127mm, you have a substantial upgrade in capabilities with the rockets.
