It's a later M5, notice thicker rear armor extending above the caterpillars. And the armament isn't pathetic for an armoured vehicle this size.

not so great visible that's why I gone for M3


light tanks in 1944 are very pathetic in German service the Panzer 3 was probably the "lightest" and would make breakfest out of this

That's the same case with many German tanks vs. allied counterparts. Luckily, the Allies had tanks in exceedingly large numbers that weren't as complex as the German ones and were therefore successful.

yes but look at this way

the most mass produced allied tanks were rather needlesly pathetic , the most mass produced soviet tank T-34 was also inferior to german ones in many areas but only marginal and it would also make breakfest out of Sherman by a wide margin , lucky there wasn't a direct war afterwards between soviet union and allies cos I fear the Soviet union would have extended right up to the Atlantic

The Soviets may have had more armour than the UK and the USA combined at the end of the war, but I'm pretty sure that the late-war designs such as the A34 Comet, the Centurion MkI, the M24 Chaffee and the M26 Pershing would've proved themselves capably matching any Soviet counterpart.
