the total war mod, is a mod that is based on all that concerns the WWII, as in the infantry, vehicles and weaponry. in this mod there have been many improvements in the damage system, military ranks, factional balance, population, etc.. Now let's talk about all that I add to the mod: - One of the things that I base the mod was to place the vehicles called "Beutepanzer" tanks captured by the Germans, are very important because it reflects not only used their tanks but also used the enemy tanks. but not only German factions are enemy tanks but allied factions also have their tanks captured - Another important thing to add was the "treaty of loan and lease" in the mod you can see because the British faction has almost all vehicles that you supplied the Allies in the war
Edit:the Americans needed a heavy tank to cope with the panther and German tiger, then they made several projects and among them is the T26, it was simply modify the M4 Sherman and put a 90mm gun
unfortunately I did not cover the expectations and the project was canceled
This tank has the same characteristic of m4 sherman, which makes it vunerable
to fight against tanks as tiger and panther
This tank can be built in tank deport in airborne doctrine

thanks :3
lol XD is this tank a T26 turret with a Sherman Chassys?
exactly
it's great but it is very vulnerable against tanks as the panther, tiger 1 and 2
but if used well, it can easily destroy these tanks
Nit to pick: Not a Pershing prototype at all, but just an attempt at getting the 90mm gun onto a Sherman because Shermans can go more places than Pershings can.
Aside from the prototype (yes, there are pics), it didn't happen because it was concluded the turrets were needed for the Pershing production that was about to happen, and they already had a 90mm armed Sherman in the form of the M36. (M36B1 and B2 are literally a Sherman hull with a 36 turret.)
remember that Americans need a tank with a good weapon to fight the tiger and panther, for it had the idea to ride him to the 90mm cannon m4 sherman, tank unfortunately did not cover the expectations they wanted, so they canceled
the M26 Pershing had many prototypes and there enters this tank
here you can see this link
En.wikipedia.org
All your link says about it is this sentence:
"A single prototype of a T26 turret mounted on an M4A3 chassis was built by Chrysler in the summer of 1944, but did not progress into production."
Nothing on its performance.
I know what you're trying to say, but while you're more or less right on the first half, you are wrong on the second.
By the time this prototype was made, Pershing production was already approved and only a few months away, and in the meantime, the idea to fit the 90mm cannon onto a Sherman hull was effectively solved with the M36.
The reason this particular variant wasn't introduced wasn't that it underperformed or anything, but just that it simply wasn't worth mucking with the Pershing's production lines and gun stockpiles for another (presumably) top-heavy, upgunned Sherman.
I'm actually not sure if they even performed any trials on it.
I'd post where I got my info, but I can't frigging find it at the moment. Might come back if I do.
ah I see, what you say is that this is a model other than the M26 Pershing, it is partly right
remember that this model is not continuous because they needed a heavy tank and the T26 did not cover the expectations,
also is valid, good will accommodate the description
Yeah, it wasn't much to do with the Pershing's developement, as much as a parallel line/idea they figured they'd try, since both tank had the same turret ring.
If you're interested, here's a few pics of the early prototypes (1942-43) in the project that eventually came up with the Pershing:

They were intended to replace the Sherman, and fixed most of it's major design flaw(s), but even then, they just weren't good enough to justify stopping production, changing over, and then working on parts and training for two types of the same tank at once for the rest of the war.
I understand, thank you very much for your information
this if you did not know
q these prototypes are in the images are the WOT, and I've even played with them (except the T23E3)
already modifies the description
Anytime. I do like an opportunity to blabber about tanks.
Yep, they are. I'm just about ready to get one of the family, actually. Though, admittedly, it's the T21, but as a crazy lightie, I tend to moan about extraneous armour slowing me down anyhow.
jajajajajajajaja, would be great to talk about tanks :3
