The Centurion that you see in the game, is basically an Israelian version with the wrong gun, etc. The 6 Centurions that was rushed to Europe in May 1945 and arrived in combat units two weeks AFTER the war ended, did have a 17 pounder (that´s 76mm) main gun and a 20mm coaxial automatic cannon. The turret also looked very different from what we´ve in the game right now.

So, what you do get in the game, is a Centurion Mk. I with the correct main gun, but with everything else... plain wrong and it shouldnt even be in the game in the first place, since it was never used during WW2. A better UK tank to have added, would´ve been the Comet A34, which is was almost as good as the Panther.
