Armament and Protection

  • Main Armament: One 3 in (76.2 mm) Gun M7 (75 rounds).
  • Coaxial Gun: One 37 mm Gun M6 (202 rounds). The simultaneous use of both guns was a unique feature of the design.
  • Secondary Armament: Multiple machine guns, typically including two .50 cal (12.7 mm) Browning M2HB in the bow and a flexible .30 cal (7.62 mm) for anti-aircraft use.
  • Armor Thickness: Varies by area from 25 mm to approximately 101 mm (1.0 in to 4.0 in). The turret front and upper front hull were the thickest areas.
  • Variants: M6 (Cast Hull, Torque Converter) and M6A1 (Welded Hull, Torque Converter).

Powerplant and Mobility

  • Engine: Wright G-200 9-cylinder air-cooled radial gasoline engine (an aviation engine model).
  • Power Output: 825 hp at 2,300 rpm.
  • Maximum Speed: 35 km/h (22 mph).
  • Operational Range: Approximately 160 km (100 miles).
  • Suspension: Horizontal Volute Spring Suspension (HVSS).
  • Reason for Cancellation: Its high weight complicated transport across the Atlantic and its dual-gun arrangement and internal layout were deemed inefficient compared to the M4 Sherman.
