Developed shortly after WWII with over 8600 built. The M36
90mm gun was a new design with a concentric recoil system.
A new turret (T42) was mounted on the proven M46 hull.
Large turret bustle housed the radio and ventilator. There
was no computerized fire control system. In service only a
short time, replaced by M48. Poor range with gas engine.
Large numbers supplied to NATO countries.
