M26 Pershing, Heavy tank at introduction; later reclassified as a medium tank, TanksM26 PershingHeavy tank at introduction; later reclassified as a medium tankBuilt by: Fisher Tank Arsenal; Detroit Tank ArsenalThe M26 Pershing was the U.S. Army's late-World War II T26E3 tank, standardized as the M26 in March 1945 and reclassified as a medium tank in May 1946. It replaced Sherman-era compromises with a 90 mm M3 gun, torsion-bar suspension, heavier armor, and a five-person layout, but its Ford GAF powertrain left it underpowered for its weight and the drivetrain-improved M46 Patton carried the layout into the postwar Patton line.
