| | DELTA GREEN 1939-1945 : EQUIPMENT : ARMORED FIGHTING VEHICLES: M3 Grant/Lee Medium Tank (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13) |
 | | The M3 was designed as an interim solution, with its 37mm gun in the turret and a 75mm gun in a sponsoon off the hull. |
 | | The M3 was issued in great numbers to British and Commonwealth forces, both in its original condition, which the British named Lee, and as a model built to British specifications, called the the Grant MkI. |
 | | Though obsolete by mid-1943 and replaced by the M4 Sherman with American troops, both the Lee and Grant versions of the M3 remained in use by British and Commonwealth forces, especially in the Far East, where they served throughout the war. |
