Initially named "Heavy Tank T28" when construction was authorized in 1944, the design did not have its armament in a revolving turret so it never fit in the usual categories of vehicles which resulted in a reclassification in 1945 to T95 105 mm Gun Motor Carriage, however, due to its heavy armor and armament it was renamed Super Heavy Tank T28 in June 1946 because current self-propelled guns in United States service were only lightly armored
