|While the hull is a conversion of the [[M24 Chaffee]], unfortunately the extra weight means it retains little of the original vehicle's maneuverability. The initial acceleration and hull traverse rate are very poor and the suspension should be the first upgrade since it can't mount the upgraded gun without increasing the weight limit. Upgrading the gun will allow you to fire almost across the map (the increased range isn't listed on the in-game stats). Despite the vehicle's flaws, both 105mm guns hit very hard for their tier and allow the M37 to punch above its weight in heavier battles. | |While the hull is a conversion of the [[M24 Chaffee]], unfortunately the extra weight means it retains little of the original vehicle's maneuverability.

Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Excellent ammo capacity
- Good speed
- Good firing range (with 2nd gun)
- Great view range and signal range
Cons:
- Poor traverse speed
- Terrible armor
Performance
The M37 gives up the T57's armor for a larger gun. It has the same damage, penetration, and possibly range, as the Wespe and Lorraine39 L AM, but it carries far more ammunition.
Early Research
- The SCR 506 radio carries over from the T57. If you have it researched, you can install it immediately.
- Research the upgraded suspension first for added traverse speed and weight capacity.
- Next you can research the 105 mm Howitzer M4 for improved RoF, accuracy, and much-improved range.
- Go from there.

Historical Info
The 105mm HMC M37 was based on a lengthened chassis of the M24 Chaffee light tank, and the vehicle was modified much the same way as the 105mm HMC M7, which used the medium tank M3 or M4 chassis. The M4 105mm howitzer was the same as that used in the howitzer-armed Shermans, and was mounted on the M37 to the right of the carriage's centerline, replacing the assistant driver's position. The .50cal machine gun ring mount was to the right of the howitzer mount.
Manufacturers
- American Car & Foundry Co.
- Cadillac Motor Car Division of General Motors Corp.
