The 25pdr SP tracked Sexton was a self-propelled artillery vehicle of World War II. It was based on Canadian-built versions of the American M3 Lee and M4 Sherman tank chassis which entered production in Canada as the Ram and Grizzly. When Sherman production in the US expanded and supply was no longer a problem in 1943 it was decided to switch the Canadian production lines to produce the Sexton to give the British Army a mobile artillery gun using their Ordnance QF 25 pounder gun-howitzer.
