For some reason I think that you sound negative about my proposal.
A Sherman jumbo will be able to fill out functions witch an ordinary a Sherman cannot do. A Sherman jumbo shoots high explosive rounds, and can withstand more punishment than most other allied tanks.
and also the Americans have already plenty of good anti-tank weapons such as M10, M18, M26, M4 Sherman, 57mm anti-tank gun, rangers and airborne. Perhaps many of them are glass cannons. But they still have airborne which slaughters tanks.

i finde My suggestion a better suggestion on what a Sherman jumbo can replace. I totally agree with Fishhunterx Cause quite honestly who in their right mind would replace a Calliope for a Jumbo?
Na vCoH reward units aren't going to be replaced (unfortunately)

So is the Jumbo replacing the M10 still up for discussion? Cause quite honestly who in their right mind would replace a Calliope for a Jumbo? Well Calliope is better vs Infantry and Jumbo is better vs Tanks. Thats why it'd probably be appropriate to switch it out.
nice one about the Calliope for the Jumbo, Fishhunterx ;)

^That would involve and armor type change and HP increase, would be hard to instate aestetically, and wouldn't serve any purpuse as to progressing the Sherman's AT effectiveness--ergo, it just makes the sherman even more of anan iron squirt gun (as opposed to a glass cannon).

mads idea wouldnt be that hard to implement I think. Maybe the "Jumbo" could be a upgrade, much like SU has uprades and once purchasefd, it completely replaces the option to build shermans and now its only Jumbos, like how buying the Heavy mortars replaces SU medium mortar but Heay mortar cost more.

And the Jumbo doesnt have to be AT. The KV-1 replaces the T-34 but neither are better at AT. Well, maybe one can circle strafe better but thats another discussion..

I just have some suggestion on Brit AT
does anyone think of Archer?

it is sth like wehr Geschutswagen
I don't know if it was used in France
but IMO it may fit the role of early-mid game AT
