Sherman M4, secara resmi Menengah Tank, M4, adalah primer tangki yang digunakan oleh Amerika Serikat selama Perang Dunia II . It was also distributed to the Allies via lend-lease . Ini juga didistribusikan kepada Sekutu melalui meminjamkan-lease . Evolved from previous medium and light tanks, it was the first American medium tank with the main gun mounted on a fully traversing turret. Berevolusi dari tangki menengah sebelumnya dan cahaya, itu adalah tangki menengah pertama Amerika dengan senjata utama yang dipasang di menara melintasi sepenuhnya.

Production of the M4 medium tank exceeded 50,000 units and its chassis served as the basis for numerous other armored vehicles such as tank destroyers , tank retrievers , and self-propelled artillery . Produksi tangki media M4 melampaui 50.000 unit dan chassis-nya melayani sebagai dasar untuk berbagai kendaraan lapis baja lainnya seperti kapal tangki , tangki retriever , dan self-propelled artileri . Only the Soviet T-34 tank was produced in larger numbers. Hanya Soviet T-34 tank diproduksi dalam jumlah yang lebih besar.

In the United Kingdom the M4 was given the name Sherman after Union General William Tecumseh Sherman , following the British practice of naming their American-built tanks after famous American Civil War generals. Di Britania Raya M4 itu diberi nama Sherman setelah Uni Jenderal William Tecumseh Sherman , mengikuti praktek Inggris-Amerika penamaan dibangun tank mereka setelah terkenal Perang Saudara Amerika Serikat jenderal. Subsequently the British name found its way into common use in the US Selanjutnya nama Inggris menemukan jalannya ke umum digunakan di Amerika Serikat

The original Shermans were powerful enough to defeat the German tanks they faced when first deployed in North Africa . Sherman asli cukup kuat untuk mengalahkan tank Jerman yang mereka hadapi ketika pertama kali digunakan di Afrika Utara . But later, the Shermans were often pitted against Tiger I and Panther tanks , which had heavier armor and more powerful guns, and the US tanks had to rely on numbers and mobility, often suffering heavy casualties. Tapi kemudian, Sherman sering diadu melawan Tiger Aku dan tank Panther , yang memiliki baju besi yang lebih berat dan lebih kuat senjata, dan tank-tank AS harus bergantung pada jumlah dan mobilitas, sering menderita korban berat.

America's most advanced tank of the war was the M26 Pershing , but it was developed too late to play a significant role, as the US emphasized volume production of more Shermans. paling maju tangki perang Amerika adalah Pershing M26 , tapi dikembangkan terlambat untuk memainkan peran penting, seperti Amerika Serikat menekankan volume produksi lebih Sherman. Post-war tank development built upon the M26, but the Sherman and its variants continued to be used in training and combat into the late 20th century. [ 5 ] Pasca-perang tank pembangunan dibangun di atas M26, tapi Sherman dan variannya terus digunakan dalam pelatihan dan memberantas ke abad ke-20

The P90 is a Belgian designed submachine gun. The weapon’s name is an abbreviation of Project 90, which specifies a weapon system of the 1990s.[3] The P90 is considered a Personal Defense Weapon (PDW), and was designed as a compact but powerful firearm for vehicle drivers, operators of crew-served weapons, support personnel, special forces and anti-terrorist units.

Developed between 1986–1987 at Fabrique Nationale de Herstal, the P90 features a compact bullpup design, ambidextrous grip and a polymer and alloy-based construction. The weapon contains several innovative features including the proprietary 5.7x28mm ammunition, designed for greater penetration of body armour than pistol ammunition.

The P90 and variants are in use by military and police forces in over thirty countries worldwide, and sports models are popular among civilian shooters.

The M249 squad automatic weapon (SAW), formally written as Squad Automatic Weapon, 5.56 mm, M249, is an American version of the FN Minimi, a light machine gun manufactured by the Belgian company Fabrique Nationale de Herstal (FN). The M249 is manufactured in the United States and is used by all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces. The gun was introduced in 1984 after being judged the most effective of a number of candidate weapons to address the lack of automatic firepower in small units. The gun provides the heavy volume of fire of a machine gun with accuracy approaching that of a rifle to infantry squads.

The M249 is gas-operated and air-cooled. It has a quick-change barrel, allowing the gunner to rapidly replace an overheated or jammed barrel. A folding bipod is attached near the front of the gun, though a heavy fixed tripod is also available to troops. It can be fed from both linked ammunition and STANAG magazines, like those used in the M16 and M4. This allows the SAW gunner to use rifleman's magazines as an emergency source of ammunition in the event that he runs out of linked rounds. However, this will often cause malfunctions because the magazine spring has difficulty feeding rounds quickly enough to match the SAW's high cyclic rate.

M249 SAWs have seen action in every major conflict involving the United States since the 1991 Gulf War. Soldiers are generally satisfied with the weapon's performance, though there have been many reports of clogging with dirt and sand. Due to the weight and age of the weapon, the U.S. Marine Corps (USMC) is considering designs for an infantry automatic rifle, which is planned to complement and partially replace the M249 in their service.

The Browning M1919 is a .30 caliber medium machine gun family widely used during the 20th century. It was used as a light infantry, coaxial, mounted, aircraft, and anti-aircraft machine gun by the U.S. and many other countries, especially during World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War. Although it began to be superseded by newer designs in the later half of the century (such as by the M60 machine gun), it remained in use in many North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) countries and elsewhere for much longer. It is very similar in design to the larger .50-caliber M2 Machine Gun, which is also a Browning-designed weapon and is still in NATO service.

Many M1919s were rechambered for the new 7.62 × 51 mm NATO round and served into the 1990s, as well as up to the present day in some countries. The United States Navy also converted many to 7.62 mm NATO, and designated them Mk 21 Mod 0; they were commonly used on river craft in the 1960s and 1970s in Vietnam.

The M60 (formally the United States Machine Gun, Caliber 7.62 mm, M60) is a family of American general purpose machine guns firing 7.62x51mm NATO cartridges from a disintegrating belt of M13 links. It can fire three types of ammunition, ball, tracer, and armor piercing.

Introduced in 1957, until recently it remained in use in every branch of the U.S military and still serves in other armed forces. Its manufacture and continued upgrade for military and commercial purchase continues into the 21st century though it has been replaced or supplemented in most roles by other designs, notably the M240 (U.S. Forces' nomenclature for the FN MAG-58) in U.S service.
