The Sherman VC Firefly is one of the most famous British tanks of World War II, intensively used from 1944 until the end of the war by British and Commonwealth forces. It was renowned for its excellent armament in the form of the 17-pounder anti-tank gun, which enabled it to effectively engage even German Tigers and Panthers. These tanks participated in battles in Normandy, the Netherlands, and during the crossing of the Rhine, having a significant impact on Allied successes. Track covers were an essential component, protecting the running gear from mud, stones, and mine fragments.
