Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Sloped frontal armor
- Good acceleration
- Good hull traverse speed
- Good turret traverse
- Good signal range
Cons:
- Larger than the regular M4
- Poor penetration for its tier
- Inaccurate gun
Performance
The performance of this tank is comparable to the T14, though the T14 has better all round armor at the cost of reduced mobility. Like other premium vehicles, the M4A2E4 is a good moneymaker and a pleasure to drive, unless assigned in high tier battles where the lack of penetration of its gun becomes obvious, and it often is. Unless it's in the top tier, this tank is most effective when supporting other tanks.
