This M-26 was the best tank on the western front, though it was overdue, not sure if it's a `Super' M26 Pershing photo: M26 Pershing Bovington200659M26Pershing.jpg Wide treads for mobility, high velocity cannon and sloped armor. I saw some photos of one that took out a Tiger V with its auto-level cannon, and it was moving right along when it took the shot.

The tank in the photo is not a super Pershing. The super had a much longer gun barrel and the gun mantle was much thicker.
