---Lore---
A medium tank designed by the Canadian armed forces, it was designed as a replacement for the current tank that the Canadain forces utilized
It's designed to be cheap to build and operate its also very energy efficient. It's also designed with the safety of the crew in mind to avoid unnecessary casualties. It feature thick 68cm armour at the front and 58mm armour at the sides, it's most glaring weakness is its the back, which only has a measly 40mm thick amour. The M-48 can exceed speeds of 100kmh allowing the tank to safely speed past enemy defenses. It's slanted armour also makes shots easily ricochet off its armour. Many of the standard models utilize a "tank bayonet" for charging and stabbing enemy tanks and buildings, however many operators claim this to cause glare at night giving away positions. The tank is operated by 4 crew members, one person is the commander and radio operator, the second person is the gunner, the third person is the loader, and the fourth person is the driver.
This model utilized the 115mm cannon specifically designed to destroy the heavily armoured German and Japanese tanks. It's also features a type 18 10 cylinder engine making this the fastest tank on the allied side, even faster than most light tanks.
