The M10 Tank, officially known as the M10 Wolverine, was an American tank destroyer used during World War II. It was based on the chassis of the M4 Sherman tank and was equipped with a 3-inch gun, making it effective against enemy armor. The M10 was designed for mobility and speed, allowing it to engage enemy tanks from a distance. Introduced in 1942, the M10 served in various theaters of the war, including North Africa and Europe. Its open-top turret design provided better visibility for the crew but also made it more vulnerable to enemy fire. The M10 played a crucial role in the Allied efforts to defeat the Axis powers.
