About the Vehicle:
The M551 Sheridan Armored Reconnaissance/Airborne Assault Vehicle (ARAAV) was developed to provide airborne troops with a light yet heavily armed tank. Equipped with the M81 dual-purpose 152mm gun/launcher, the Sheridan could fire both conventional HEAT rounds and the advanced MGM51 Shillelagh anti-tank guided missile—allowing it to engage targets at both close and long range. Its aluminum hull and amphibious design enabled it to be air-dropped or transported by helicopter, offering unmatched flexibility on the battlefield.
In-Game Role:
In World War III: Team Yankee, the M551 Sheridan excels in fast attack and reconnaissance roles. Its combination of mobility and high-caliber weaponry makes it ideal for flanking maneuvers, striking enemy armour from unexpected angles, or supporting airborne operations. Use its Shillelagh missiles to engage heavier targets at distance while leveraging its agility to evade counterfire.
