The Sherman Firefly Mark VC was a British variant of the American Sherman tank, equipped with the powerful 17-pounder anti-tank gun as its primary weapon. Originally designed as a temporary solution until future British tanks were developed, it became the most common vehicle with the 17-pounder in World War II. Overcoming initial turret fitting issues, production began in early 1944, supplying Field Marshal Montgomery's forces for the Normandy landings. Highly valued due to its capability of neutralizing Panther and Tiger tanks, Fireflies were prioritized targets by German crews. Approximately 2100-2200 Fireflies were produced before 1945.
