Brilliant film of heavy engineering. Out of interest does anyone know what version of the tank is seen on the last few frames as they drive away from the range, one has a box shaped structure in place of the upper turret?

Looks like an M2 Medium tank to me:

Gotta love 1940's propaganda ...... never knowingly undersold ! I love the description of the M3 as "a fortress able to fight a small battle by itself" :lol:

Thanks, Adrian !
