Ah sweetness, the Chaffee is one of my favorites. In many way for itsweight I almost consider it better than the Sherman.

It fires the same ammo as the Sherman, it has a torsion bar suspension, and the sloped armor gives it good protection for its weight.

The funny thing is the M24 only weighs about 2 tons less than the PzIVF-G

Yeah...such a sweet tank...would be lovely in FH. Move out quickly, hit hard (relatively), and have decent armor (for a "light" tank). Better than the M3/M5. Gawd. Nice counterpart to the Puma actually...

I could, and most likely will be wrong.

Nope No M-24's for Ivan.

The M-24 didnt enter service with the US Army til end of 1944. It was given in lend lease to other Armies but most were too late to see service in other armies.

All I know is, it's big, green, has a ugly skin on it and it looks like the tank mentioned earlier

The big slow green thing on Kursk that the Russians get is a Matilda II.

Actually...it's all relative to the ground pressure.

Ground pressure on the T-34/85 is 12.35 psi (very similar to the Pershing and Tiger btw). The T-34/76 is 10 psi. The Panzer IV was whopping 12.8 (the Panther too). The Panzer II was 11.3 psi. The M-24's is like 11.01 psi. Not bad at all actually. The T-34 is obviously designed with that in mind.

Pretty good for a "light" tank.
