Flames of War American M27 (76mm) Tanks (x2)

Experimental Firepower for Late-War U.S. Armoured Forces

Historical Background:

The M27 designation refers to a little-known U.S. experimental variant of the Sherman tank, equipped with a 76mm gun and intended to improve firepower and survivability for American armoured units during the final stages of World War II. While not widely deployed or standardized like the M4A3E8 “Easy Eight” or M18 Hellcat, the M27 offered upgraded components and firepower designed to match evolving German threats. In the context of Flames of War, the M27 provides players with a thematically appropriate, rare vehicle option that fits into Late-War tank company compositions, offering flexibility and historical flavour.
