  • gcalcification: The open turret top was intended to give the crew superior situational awareness of the battlefield: this because the M-10 and the later M-36 and M-18 were supposed to aggressively hunt enemy tanks and kill them. Tanks with a covered turret are harder to see out of when "buttoned up" and accordingly the designers of these tank destroyers wanted to give their crews the advantage of being more likely to see the enemy tanks before the enemy tanks saw them.

  • M-10 at least wins style points for its coolest looking design of any WWII AFV. Though I have never ever understood the open air top.

  • A bunch of ignorant comments on here :( The M-10 was a quick way to get the high velocity 76mm gun into action, and was infinitely better than the previous h/t based M3 and even towed guns. There wasn't an anglo-american tank at the time with armour thick enough to resist Tiger & Panther guns, so it's relative thinness is irrelevant. And the experience with it led to the M18 Hellcat and M-36, and up-gunning the Sherman. Without the M-10 the US would have been a lot worse off!

  • @MartyInLa Keep in mind the word "propaganda"

  • Sudden death to the Tiger? He should have said instant death if you meet a Tiger, never mind a King Tiger. Or a mortar, or a Panzerfaust, or a Panther, or a flak 88, or a Pak 75, or a Panzerschreck, or a Jadpanther.

  • i eat these all the time in world of tanks

  • @4shacks1house

    its objective is to use its speed ,not make a gunfight from a distance,it was firing and moving and the panther's turret wasn't even able to turn his turret and shoot it.But surely ,its not a good tank destroyer,just a fast one.

  • @4shacks1house but there was a shit load of them

  • @4shacks1house Tank destroyers are built lightly armoured.

  • What a load of crap. Thin turret armour , hull armour. Only the gun was half decent. Whoa unto the fool that gets that in a Panthers' gunsight.
