M5 STUART American Light Tank in Action at World of Tanks

The M5 "Stuart" (also "General Stuart") was an extension of the original M3 Stuart Light Tank line of 1941 and brought about by the American military relocation of vital war-making supplies - namely the Continental aero engine used in the M3. This initiative begat a modified Stuart light tank initially known as the "M4" though later changed to "M5" to differentiate it from the classic M4 Sherman medium tank. The British Army continued naming their American tanks and the M5 was known as "Stuart VI" (the M3A3 was the "Stuart V".
