WW2 M3 Lee footage part 2.

The M3 Lee, was an American medium tank named after Confederate general Robert E. Lee.
Intended as a replacement for the unsuccessful M2 Medium Tank, the M3 was produced and designed in a rush after the war broke out.
The basis for the M3 proofed to be incredibly successful and the development of the M3 helped to speed up the development of the M4 Sherman.

Even due the M3 was a rushed obsolete, awkward design it served as a frontline tank the entire length of the war and proofed to be really effective in the Pacific campaign, but the high silhouette and main gun position were still a big downside, but it was reliable, had good armor and, great firepower.

In Britain, the tank was called the Grant named after Union general Ulysses S. Grant.
British army didn't like the overall design of the tank, but pushed for it's production since it was the only model suitable for instant mass-production, and it became the warhorse of the British army during 1941-42.

The M3 was produced from 1941 until 1942 and approximately 6,258 were made.
