Are there any WWII experts on the forum?

I'm wondering exactly what this "
WWII American Tank" is. (That particular digital-model store has a deep aversion to actually giving something its real-world name, which is usually justifiable because those are trademarks, but in this case makes no sense because it's a freaking public domain US Government name.)
I expect that there are enough promotional images for somebody who knows his (or her) tanks to be able to identify which kind of tank this is...

I think the most common US tank in WWII was the Sherman, but I'm nowhere near being an expert.

Similar to an Isreali Sherman?. The Gun Mantle is different from a Sherman Firefly.
I love the smell of rotaries in the morning. You know one time, I got to work early, before the rush hour. I walked through the empty carpark, I didn't see one bloody Prius or Golf. And that smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole carpark, smelled like.... ....speed.
One day they're going to ban them.

Isreali? Not something I can use, then.
