The M4A3E8, adopting the nickname Easy Eight, took several technical improvements to enhance Sherman's operational effectiveness. The 76mm M1 high-velocity gun had been flanked by a new horizontal volute spring suspension (HVSS) system able to ensure an improved driving condition and to guarantee a higher speed.
