The Ram was a Canadian Cruiser Tank based on the American M3 Medium. 2,032 were built at the Montreal Locomotive Works between November 1941 and July 1943. They did not see combat service as frontline units had by then standardised on the M4 Sherman, so the Rams were only used for training or converted into ‘Kangaroo’ personnel carriers. 
After WW2 the Royal Netherlands Army used Ram tanks until replaced by new Centurions in 1952.
