Not what you were looking for? Were you looking for the M4A3E2 Sherman Jumbo?
The M4A3E8 Sherman is a Tier VI American Medium Tank. The E8 Sherman is a quicker, stronger armored variant of the M4 Sherman. The tank's strengths include high rate of fire, decent speed, and its ability to use the Vertical Stabilizer. It is also the less armored brother of the M4A3E2 Sherman Jumbo, but both equip powerful guns and this tank has much better speed.
This tank has almost identical armament as the M4, but many players would rather equip the 105mm that carries over from the M4, since it would allow a similar play style to the M4. Other players may prefer the 76mm gun due to its fast rate of fire.
The armor on this tank is bad though. Despite the well-sloped armor on the front, it's still weak at only 80mm. Yes, it can bounce low-tier shots but weak for its tier. Side scraping isn't advised either. Overall, this tank should be played similar to the M4, as it is a variant.
