I've added the M5A1 Tank, with full interior, some general info on the M5A1:

Along with it's British designation Stuart VI, the US built M5/M5A1 was the most common light tank used in NW-Europe during the Allied invasion although the British still used a majority of M3/M3A1/M3A3 (Stuart III/IV/V) light tanks.

The main differences between the M5 and M5A1 was the improved turret with increased room and space at the rear for a radio set, pistol ports and larger escape hatches. The anti-aircraft machine-gun mount was moved to the right.

The vehicle you see is the early version of the M5A1, the late version had a folding pintle mg mount surrounded by a shield and large stowage bin on its rear.

With it's relatively poor 37mm M6 gun against German armour, the M5A1 was often relegated to scout and reconnaissance roles, but with its three machine guns was still an effective infantry support platform.

Because of its light armour life was tough for M5A1 crews as one-in-three would be killed after armour penetration (mines, at-guns, at rockets etc.) compared to the rate of one-in-five for medium tanks. Armour commanders tended to shy away from deploying them in areas known to have strong anti-tank defences.

I've updated our standalone games page:

Moddb.com

We are making great progress, everything is coming together nicely. We make it a habit not to advertise our progress and just focus on the development not the pr.

No we are not using the Unreal engine, Source Engine, BF2 Engine or any other engine with commercially released games.

That said the first game that is released with this engine will be a very big one. So we are confident about it's abilities.

Yeah sorry about being slack, this content has been on our website for several months. Just got around to putting it up here now. I'll try and keep this updated more regularly, but I prefer to focus on development, and keeping a low key.
