Does the Sherman II mount the T45 APCR like in warthunder? Or it mounts AP like other tanks? What’s the difference between an M4A1 and the Sherman II?
not much difference besides appearance, shells are the same which is annoying, the sherman historically had only ap in africa but by the time normandy came around, aphe was the standard armor piercing round. would love a aphe fo the shermans in normandy so they dont have to spam solid shot at critical spots while other tanks get aphe

It is the same cannon - M3 - but it uses different ammo at different times of hte war. Earlier Lee/Grants had the shorter M2 cannon, and that was never fitted to Shermans.
The Sherman in 1942-43 only had a solid shot AP that had poor performance - M72.
By 1944 they had improved the heat treatment to give it better performance, and it was APHE - with an explosive charge - M61.
