In 1944 the M.4 "Sherman" medium tank was going to reach the top of its development. The need to supply plants for the ever increasing tank production required the reorganization of productive layouts, standardization of components, and adoption of engines which could be produced rapidly and in large quantities.
This latter was achieved with the adoption of the powerful and reliable liquid-cooled V-8 Ford engine.
