Good news for all collectors and anyone who just loves unusual vehicles – very soon, the range of ‘rare’,
but series-produced vehicles in War Thunder will receive a new addition: the M4A5 medium tank!
The Canadian RAM Mk.II cruiser tank was received into the US Army with the designation M4A5. The vehicle, with its outstanding external appearance, was developed and based on the American M3 Lee. The M4A5, which is coming to the game, was in series production from 1942 to 1943, and 1899 units were produced within that time. Although this tank never came face to face with the enemy on the battlefield, it was actively used both by the Canadians and the British for training tank crews, it also served as a basis for developing later SPGs and other vehicles of various designs.
What makes this vehicle stand out from the crowd apart from its unusual origins? First of all, its looks. The smooth contours of its hull and the special gun mantlet make the tank stand out from other Allied vehicles. The tank’s armament includes an excellent QF Mk III 6 pdr (57 mm) cannon. Players that have already researched British tanks with this cannon are likely to thank its accuracy, rapid-firing and powerful effect, this represents a serious threat to any ground vehicles at ranks I and II. The tank also stands out for its survivability in no small part thanks to its excellent defenses for its level (its frontal armour reaches 3” in thickness) plus its effective crew of five.

In battle, the vehicle is excellently suited to complete various tasks and is a far more versatile tank than any other contemporary tanks. Want to take advantage of the armour and ‘outmuscle’ enemy defenses? Easy. Quickly change your position to take a strategic point? No problem. Dive into the thick of it and fire off a couple of dozen shells through the attackers’ frontal armour plates? Be my guest! On top of all this, the tank has a nice bonus to Research Points and Silver Lions earned.
This armoured vehicle will arrive in our game with update 1.61 “Road to Glory” and will be at rank II as a premium vehicle in the US research tree!
See you on the battlefield!

Great, another premium. Just what we needed.
Gaijin why so many prems for ground forces the aircraft tech tress are filled with non prem so how come not for ground forces? also will there be a new damage system coming up for tanks?
How about we stop getting premium vehicles and actually improving the tech trees >_>
Lots of people want Canadian vehicles in game (as well as other nations), only way to add them is premium, because we do not have a Canadian tech tree due to the fact they only have like 3 Rams, a skink, and a UC 2pdr... and only 2 planes-both being lancasters... not enough for an airforce/ navy
Premium! PREMIUM PREMIUM! 1899 MADE! PREMIUM! I'm getting tired of this, Obscure prototypes as Premium? Sure. 1899 made? HECK NO! Enough with the common vehicles as premiums thats like not putting any non premium versions of the T-34 in the game
Oh, I am sorry, let's add a canadian tech tree of only 5 vehicles so we can make this a non-premium as well as make Serbia, New Zealand, Australia, etc have their own independent tech trees so they can be non-premium.
ha, 6dpr and accuracy in the same sentances. When it was introduced the 6 pdr was as accuarate as the 75mm guns but now it's as accurate as the long 50mm spraying shells left and right.
awesome gotta keep all us colonials together. :)
WHY IS THIS PREMIUM!!? If there was any tank to make a premium, why THIS one!!? I Can't have a single Canadian plane in this game without paying for the thing that's such bull.
It is premium because we can't have a Canadian tech tree of only 5 vehicles. It is premium because it's in the US tech tree. Also we can't have a single Canadian plane because there was never a Single Canadian plane in WWII or around it besides basically reskins of a Lancaster, which would probably be a 200 GE skin like all the other player made skins.
I strongly agree that "Canadian Cadet" should be on the list of UK tree. This tank should be called, Ram MKII... "The Tank, Cruiser, Ram was a cruiser tank designed and built by Canada in the Second World War, based on the U.S. M3 Medium tank." I will never use that name "Canadian Cadet" that is kindly insulted to "Proud Canadian WT Players"... I strongly advise to change the name and to move this Ram tank to UK as non-premium tank along with two other Rams as MKI and Late MKII.
"The Compleat Ram - Canada's Pride" Roger V. Lucy, Service Publications. Not yet in print. This 196-page, hardcover book will examine the complete developmental history of the Ram tank and its variants. In addition, there are chapters on the Grizzly and its variants. Over 200 photos. Currently in preparation. Contact Service Publications to be advised of the release of this book.
Really? Ram II is M4A5? IIRC the M4A5 designation is reserved for Canadian made ordinary Shermans with special tracks AKA Grizzly.
The video just reminded me how cool it would be if those visible crewmembers would have ragdolls.. and if we could have infantry platoons ingame to battle and strafe with tanks and planes.
