	Char M7 Priest - Histoire, fiche technique et photos
		Le tank M7 est doté, pour sa protection rapprochée, d'une petite tourelle située sur l'avant-droit de l'engin pouvant recevoir une mitrailleuse de calibre 12,7 mm.
		La forme de cette tourelle rappelle les chaires des églises, où les prêtres font leur sermont, aussi le char M7 sera très vite surnommé "Priest" qui veut dire "Prêtre" en Anglais.
		Effectivement résistant, le canon automoteur M7 pouvait cependant difficilement gravir des hauteurs, du fait de son poids très important.

	Information
		Wat ook leuk is om te vermelden is dat de Engelsen hem de naam Priest hebben gegeven vanwege pulpit (de cilindervormige koepel met daarop een.50).
		De M7B1 Priest kwam later in productie dan de M7 Priest en was voornamelijk samengesteld uit onderdelen van de M4A3 Sherman maar leek toch veel op zijn voorganger.
		Qua bewapening en bezetting was de M7B1 Priest ook ongeveer gelijk aan de M7 Priest.

		The M-7 Priest was the principle mobile artillery system for the allies in World War 2.
		M7 Priests were based on the successful and highly produced M4 Sherman and M3 Stuart chassis.
		Common practice among the Bitish Royal Army and US Marines in the Pacific (most notably in Okinawa) was to have the 105mm howitzer removed in favor of utilizing the M7 as a 22-infantry armored personnel carrier.

	105mm HMC M7
		The 105mm HMC M7 was designed on the chassis of the medium tank M3, whereby the upper hull and turret were removed and replaced with an open-topped superstructure with the 105mm howitzer in the right front corner, and the.50cal MG ring mount to the right of the howitzer.
		Early models retained holdovers from the M3, namely the early-type bogies with the return roller on top, and the three-piece final drive and differential housing with a notch taken from the top right corner to make room for the M3's sponson-mounted 75mm gun.
		M7B1s were modified during the Korean War by raising the howitzer mount, and consequently the height of the HMC as well, which increased the howitzer's maximum elevation to +65°.
