Could be nice news for the next sneaky peaky. The reveal of the foreign call in group.

Is there already known how many different tanks will be included?

The Brits Churchill call in is heavier, slower, and has a 40mm gun (they call it a 2 pdr) just like the 40m. The latter is twice as fast, but has half as much armor

я считаю, что т34 best of best самый массовый(интересный факт: немцы с 1939-1945 изготовили 23000 танков,а в СССР на одном заводе <УРАЛ ВАГОН ЗАВОД> изготовили с 1941-1945  только одних т34 28000 штук), орудие тоже отвечало задачам которые перед ним ставили.

No, Churchill has a (Mk IV version) 6pounder (OQF 57mm). Tetrarch has a 2pounder.

You're right  ;D the Wiki page for churchills was a little ambiguous as to what guns were on which tanks. it said on the main column that the main armament was a Qf 2 pounder and that was the only one listed when in reality there were at least 3 different ones used. I had to read pretty much the whole article to have it go something like:

Mk I-II = 2 pdr

Mk III-IV = 6 pdr

Mk VI-whatever = 75mm

@DocRoc: THe various websites do seem to have a paucity of data on the Churchill. The 75mm gun was only used for Home Defense Churchills. It was mounted in the hull, sort of like the M3 Lee/Grant. From what I've read the turret of the Churchill was too small to mount anything larger than the 6 Pounder.

A note on the M4. Most of the involved powers concentrated on upgrading to diesels to increase HP. THe Sherman used 80 Octane fuel.
