M7 Priest self-propelled gun. Used very effectively during the Battle of the Bulge. They developed it from the M3 Lee tank.

Not to be that guy, but that is a Canadian Sexton. That is a British howitzer the 25pounder I believe.

Ah. So a Priest parallel - the Santana Series IV to the Priest's Land Rover Defender.

Yep. It's a double derivative at that. It is based on the Ram which was based on the M3 Lee. This has been your useless information of the day.
This is the priest.

I was wondering why it had appeared to be a priest with slightly different hatches for no reason, and this is a cogent explanation. It's fun that in both cases they were built by the respective countries' railroad companies... expertise on bogie wheel building and heavy objects-lifting clearly a factor.

Everybody did their part. Of course they got money for it, but I'd like to think it was for the right reason everyone chipped in.
