I got my information from wikipedia
The US Army would have been better off investing the resources into an improved (76mm toting) M-4 Sherman, earlier than they did…
Yeap , that open top is criyng for a hand grenade.
All so true, but that was the only open top tank that the americans had used and many had seen devistation due to grenades being thrown through the top.
o i see so the weakness of the m10 is an open top,never seen that
Yes the M10 Tank Destroyer had a easy hatchet that could easily be opened. The M10 Tank Destroyer could have used a lot of changes to it. The gun was very powerful and gave the M10 a well fighting chance on the Western front. However the design was basiacally based on the M4 Sherman. Which in my opinion was a better tank then the M10 tank destroyer. They probably would of been better off to just upgrade the armour, gun, and the top hatchet. So I thank as the M10 Tank Destroyer as a upgraded M4 Sherman.
I still like the M4 Sherman better. The M10 Tank Destroyer was still a great tank to command in my opinion.
yea the m4 was a great tank
this is a picture of my m10 getting there butt wiped by some panzers and i think panther an maybe even a tiger this is some game play from COH
In the “Fire Fly,” “Jumbo,” or “Easy-8” configurations perhaps…
Serching for some M-10 video I get this.

Two clips approx. 4 minutes each: the first showing a Jagdtiger on the proving grounds and some footage of the Jagdtigers of sPzJgAbt 512 surrendering in Iserlohn. The second clip shows an “advertisement” for the M10 tank destroyer which is worth watching for the sheer entertainment value let alone being of interest to military vehicle enthusiasts.
Very nice video Panzerknacker. The words in the movie were annoying to me because it was a different language. Anyways, great find by you.
awesome vid man why was some of it japanese then it speaks american in the end of the vid but real cool vid man
COH is a blast to play,ofcourse it is not exactly realistic,but to be fun everything cannot be realistic.I think he is playing against a bot that is prolly why the tanks manuevered very badly.
