40 - M26 Pershing, the discarded future

Totally Tanked is tackling the American WW2 heavy, the M26 Pershing. In 1943 the Americans had a tank design that would define tanks into the 1980s, but they decided they didn't want it. In this episode we will get to the bottom of how and why this happened, and how it ended when an American Lieutenant General was blown to smithereens by the US Eighth Airforce.
