M26 and M46 Pershing, M47, M48, M60 Patton, and M103 Family of Vehicles
Jacques Deguerre:
A timely thread for me since I have a What If M26 based tank currently stuck in development hell on the table behind me. I know what I want to do and I have the kits to it but the past few weeks have been non-stop Real Life™ for me.
Feldmarschall Zod:
I wonder how well a long barreled 105mm would fit onto an M26 or M46.

I wonder how much more room the M26 turret has compared to the T23 (they have the same turret ring size). T23, which ended up being used by the M4 Sherman, can accommodate up to the lower-powered French 105mm/L44.
Jacques Deguerre:
IIRC, the Spanish installed 105 mm L7/M68 in their final upgrade of the M47. Of course, the turret ring is a bit larger than on the M26/M46 but hey, it might still work.

M46E1 uses the same T42 turret on the M47, so......
