You mean the Grant/Lee? The M3? The Priest was a SPG 105mm howitzer on the M3 chassis. The Ford GAA was already well into development in 39, same with the hydromatic gearbox.

Narrow-gauge can work, but only up to certain inclines (unless you build monster locomotives like the Big Boys). Moreover, you then need to interface between the narrow and standard gauge lines, both require extensive switchyards if you want any sort of traffic volume, etc. Note that...

Yes, but here you are doing it in 1939, so have at it! Of course, those who know me know one thing... I love the T28/T95 and TOG. So, I would, of course, fast track development of T28 in 1939, perhaps making use of a tank gun conversion of the 155mm Long Tom. DOOM TURTLE! Would need a...

You do realize, I hope, that my proposed medium tank concept is based on a properly armored mix of a T22 and a Hellcat, yes?
