Description
Welcome to my next addition to my WW2 replica collection. This is another variant of an existing vehicle, the British modification of the American M4A4 Sherman, the Firefly. Enjoy!

Some facts shamelessly taken from wikipedia:
The Sherman Firefly was a medium tank used by the United Kingdom and some armoured formations of other Allies in the Second World War. It was based on the US M4 Sherman but was fitted with the more powerful British 76.2 mm (3.00 in) calibre 17-pounder anti-tank gun as its main weapon. Conceived as a stopgap until future British tank designs came into service, the Sherman Firefly became the most common vehicle mounting the 17-pounder in the war.

Boasting a deadly 76.2mm cannon over the standard 75mm cannon of the American standard Sherman, it gives the Firefly more firepower and more accuracy. The crew is slightly different to the base tank, the main crew members remain (driver, gunner, commander and loader) however the co-driver who would operate the hull MG has been traded for extra ammo storage. As in real life, the A4 variant is longer than the A2 ive already made, coming in at (in game) 6.5m long, while the other dimensions remain the same.

Featuring:
'17 pounder wont fit!' 'Put it in sideways!'
Repair equipment and other tools
Spare ropes on the exterior
An upgunned main armament
Extra ammo

Keep in mind:
The vehicle works without infinite fuel, electric or ammunition, you can have these on but the vehicle works perfectly fine without.
Any and ALL feedback is welcome! If you find a bug or problem, dont hesitate to tell me how stupid i am for not noticing it.

Please do NOT reupload in any capacity without my permission! Would you like your work stolen? No? So dont do it to me, thank you.

Originally i had tank wheels, but the more tank wheels you have and the longer the track, the harder it is for the engine to propel the vehicle. So i opted for normal wheels, its for functional reasons, and i didnt fancy making the engine rev more or make it bigger due to cooling issues

Nice tank! Quick question...any reason the rubber tires were used for some of the bogie wheels rather than Tank Wheel Small? Could it have been a grip-related thing? Other than that, I'd probably just gear it down a little more in low gear so it crawls a bit more slowly in low. Otherwise nice work indeed!
