The M26 Pershing was still some time away from mass production.
The M4A3E2 was a special Sherman variant nicknamed "Jumbo."
Based on the M4A3, it received much thicker bow and turret armor.
It could withstand fire from large-caliber German tank guns and anti-tank guns.
It was later upgraded with the 76 mm main gun and had better anti-tank capabilities.
In late December 1944, a "Jumbo" tank of the 4th Armored Division under the command of Patton led a unit of American soldiers to break through the German siege of Bastogne and joined forces with the 101st Airborne Division.
This operation reversed the situation of the Battle of the Bulge.
