Re: Sherman Firefly Deep Wading Gear

Alex;

Picture 3: a detailed look at the deep wading gear fitted to a Sherman. The foremost duct on the right, feeds air to the engine while the larger rear one dispels exhaust gases. These structures are held in place by cables and bolts but are released by explosive charges once the tank is clear of the water.
