Default Sherman 105.

What is the difference in an IB Sherman 105 and a Sherman M4A3 105? I want to do a Fort Garry Horse one.

Sherman IB is a plain M4 (105) so welded hull and radial engine. M4A3 is Ford GAA. Rear hull and engine decks are main differences

Not as built, the Israelis converted some and added a dozer kit. Presumably engineers vehicles.

Hello,

Just a quick note : the 21st Army Group only received Shermans IB (no M4A3 105mm).

Hope it helps,
Cheers,
Patrice.
