However, in the proper hands, the tank excels in many roles. The M7's terrible armor and low penetration result in it being somewhat dismissed. 6-pounder could barely fully utilize its DPM due to bad accuracy and after-shot dispersion.Troublesome gun selection: 75mm M3L has very low shell speed thus curved trajectory while 6-pounder has low accuracy.Poor armor and low HP, combined with relatively bulky size.Great camo values, especially when given camo skills.6-pounder gun has high APCR penetration.Decent alpha damage and dispersion on movement for its tier.The M7 marks the end of its American light line. The M7 is an excellent tank to have in a wolf pack, letting the sturdier medium tanks take the shots while the M7 flanks, keeping the enemy tracked or inflicting steady damage to the target. If exposed to enemy fire, the M7 can be destroyed rather quickly, so caution must be taken when engaging the enemy. However, the gun's weaknesses are offset by a decent dispersion penalty, so proper use of the M7 will employ all of the tank's strengths: high rate of fire, speed, and mobility. It is extremely fast and maneuverable, but has thin armor and below average gun performance. However, since the M7 was inferior to the mass-produced M4 Sherman in all parameters except speed and dimensions, the production was stopped. Production of the M7 started by the fall of 1942. Initially, the vehicle was developed as a light tank however, as the model gradually received extra armor and armaments, it was reclassified as a medium tank.
