Detailed Historical Background:

The Sherman M4A3E2 "Jumbo" was a rare and robustly armored combat tank, produced in limited numbers. The specific tank Cobra King was fitted with a 76 mm gun and an additional co-axial machine gun, marking its place in military history. It was granted to the 37th Tank Battalion, 4th Armored Division in October 1944. Cobra King famously broke through enemy lines during the German offensive in the Ardennes, reaching surrounded American paratroopers in Bastogne. Continuing its historical journey, the tank was involved in General Patton's secret mission, Operation Hammelburg, where it was destroyed in March 1945. After years of anonymity as a war memorial, it was identified in 2001, restored with care, and is now part of the Patton Museum collection.
