The M2 Medium Tank is a Tier III American Medium Tank.
This tank is by default, the first tier III tanks of many players.
This tank is rather tall, but when fully upgraded, can be dangerous.
The top armament is a 75mm howitzer, with decent DPM and rather powerful HE shells for its tier. Also, it has the second best gun depression in the game: -20 degrees! However, the top turret is required for the 75mm, which is an open-topped. Add with that, the -20 degrees only exists behind the tank. -14 degrees is what exists in front.
The mobility is not to complain about, with rather medium tank speed of tier Vs.
The armor is (surprisingly) quite thick at the turret. The frontal armor is somewhat weak, but the upper front plate and lower plate can make some bounces against weaker guns. The sides are rather weak and won't stand against shots.
Overall, if you know how to play this tank, it should be a fun tank to use.
