M4 Halftrack 81 mm Mortar Motor Carriage

M2 Halftrack Car was modified in October 1941 to be able to transport the mortar of 81 mm M1 in the back compartment. This new model was indicated M4 81 mm Mortar Motor Carriage (MMC). M4 MMC was assigned to HQ companies of the armoured battalions of infantry and tanks. To accomodate the mortar, the seats to the back were removed and replaced by racks of ammunition being able to accomodate 96 projectiles. The mortar was directed backwards but could not be used inside the vehicle and especially not moving (except in the event of urgency). To be used, the mortar was descended from the vehicle and was posed on the ground. With this intention a door of access was installed to the back, the rail for machine-guns of M2 however was preserved. Let us note that on certain specimens, the mortar was directed forwards. M4 was standardized in October 1940 and 572 specimens were produced by White Motor Co in 1942.

M4A1 Halftrack 81 mm Mortar Motor Carriage

One thought to M3 to transport the mortar of 81 mm towards the end 1942, but as the project did not advance, one used as bases the M2A1. This new model was baptized M4A1 81 mm Mortar Motor Carriage. Contrary to M4, the M4A1 could use its mortar from the interior and in move because of the reinforcement of the mounting of the mortar and the floor of Halftrack. The M4A1 was easily recognizable thanks to the trunks of arrangement assembled to the back on each side of the door of access the M4A1 standardized in December 1942 was produced to 600 specimens by White in 1943.

M21 Halftrack 81 mm Mortar Motor Carriage

M4 did not give whole satisfaction and Ordnance Department ordered to also place the mortar of 81 mm on M3. To allow the use of the mortar in the compartment of combat, the mounting of the weapon was reinforced, as well as the floor of the vehicle. Important fact, the mortar was not directed any more backwards but forwards. vehicle and could now swivel of 30° on each side. Armament was supplemented by a .50cal machine-gun (12.7 mm) M2HB assembled on pedestal.
The T19 prototype was standardized in July 1943 as M21 81 mm Mortar Motor Carriage. White since 1944 produced 110 specimens only of M21.

M3 75 mm GMC

During the construction of the armoured forces, US Army divided the division of the roles well: to the battle tanks was entrusted the destruction of the enemy fortified towns and the support of the infantry, and to the tank destroyers the destruction of the enemy battle tanks. This provision gave birth in 1940 to Armoured Force (tanks) and to the Tank Destroyer Forces (tank destroyers). However, the latter did not have any vehicle able to play this part and the development of such machines was thus urgent. The first selected anti-tank gun was the 75 mm M1897,American version of the French veteran used in 1914-1918. One decided to mount this weapon on M3 Halftrack Personnel Carrier.
The prototype was called T12. The gun of 75 mm was simply welded onto a box just behind the cockpit. T12 could transport 90 projectiles of 75 mm arranged in racks under the gun (50) and in boxes on floor to the back of the vehicle (40). The fuel tanks were placed at the rear of the vehicle on each side to provide enough space for an acceptable traverse for the gun. The gun of 75 mm assembled on a mounting M3 could swivel of 19° on the left and 21° on the right. It had an elevation of 29° and a depression of 10°. Its effective range was approximately 914 m. It fired the high-explosive shells (HE) or smoke-producing.
T12 was also equipped with a broad flat shield protecting in front, the gunners. After one test period, T12 was accepted for the production under the designation of M3 75 mm Gun Motor Carriage (GMC). With the experiment of the first engagements in the Philippines, the flat shield was replaced by a shield equipped with walls side and closed to the top. An alternative which at the beginning was to be based on the M3A3 but finally based on the M3A2 was also produced under the name of M3A1 75 mm Gun Motor Carriage. The only difference between M3 75 mm GMC and the M3A1 75 mm GMC is that this last was equipped with a M5 mounting and not M3 as on the first. A total of 2203 specimens of the two models were produced in 1941 and 1942 per Autocar. Among these specimens 1360 were reconverted in M3A1 Halftrack Personnel Carrier when this half-tracked hunter of tank was considered to be obsolete and withdrawn from the service.

T48 57 mm GMC

In April 1942, the development from a new conversion of M3 armed with the British anti-tank gun of 6-pdr. However this gun began was quickly replaced by the American version, the 57 mm M1. The prototype was called T48 57 mm Gun Motor Carriage. This machine was intended for the British forces because it is M10 76.2 mm GMC lately conceived which was to constitute the standard model of the Tank Destroyer Forces to replace M3 75 mm GMC. The gun of 57 mm M1 was assembled just behind the seats of the drivers and the trunks with ammunition and of arrangement were installed to the back with the fuel tanks. M1 was equipped with a shield with walls side and closed to the top. M1 could swivel of 27.5° on each side and had an elevation of 15° and a depression of 5°. T48 embarked 99 projectiles of 57 mm. The production began in December 1942 to finish in 1943 with a total of 962 specimens produced by Diamond T On this total 680 were sent to the British, the remaining specimens were converted into M3A1 Halftrack Personnel Carrier for US Army. The British also converted most of their specimens into transport of troops. Large numbers of British T48 were yielded to the Russians. In fact only the Soviets used truly T48 like tank destroyers in their brigades of independent tank destroyers.

T30 75 mm HMC

The Americans wished to provide to their news Armored Force, a mobile fire support vehicle and Ordnance Department ordered at the end of 1941, the development of a conversion of M3 Halftrack armed with the howitzer of 75 mm M1A1 while waiting for the development of an entirely tracked model. Two prototypes of this temporary vehicle, called T30 75 mm Howitzer Motor Carriage, were finalized at the beginning of 1942. On these machines howitzer was assembled same manner as the gun of 75 mm, just behind the seats of the drivers. The fuel tanks were positioned to the back, as well as the trunks of arrangement and ammunition. The first models did not have a shield but because of the experiment get by M3 75 mm GMC in the Philippines, the following models were equipped with shields with walls side and closed to the top. Howitzer M1A1 could swivel of 22.5° on each side and had an elevation of 49.5° and a depression of 9°. White Motor Car produced 500 in 1942 of them. The last 188 produced specimens were converted into M3 Halftrack Personnel Carrier.

T19 105 mm HMC

At the same time as T30, was developed another conversion of M3 armed with the howitzer of 105 mm M2A1. It is the largest caliber ever assembled on American Halftrack this which posed some problems in particular on the level of the chassis. Because of the overload of the chassis, the use of the weapon moving was disadvised. Two projects were carried out of face, T19 and T38 but this last was finally abandoned to the profit of the first. This vehicle was officially called T19 105 mm Howitzer Motor Carriage. The M2A1 was installed directly behind the seats of the drivers and the fuel tanks, the ammunition and the trunks of arrangements were installed to the back. The M2A1 had an effective range of 1500, could swivel of 20° on each side and had an elevation of 35° and a depression of 5°. This weapon could firethe high-explosive shells (HE), explosive anti-tank shells (HEAT), phosphorus and chemical shells. Only 324 specimens were produced by Diamond T at the beginning of 1942 and 90 of them were reconverted in M3A1 Personnel Carriers. T19 was in fact quickly replaced by M7 105 mm HMC "Priest" based on M4 Medium Tank Sherman.

M16 Halftrack Multiple Gun Motor Carriages

M13 and M14 were very satisfactory designs, but US Army wished to still increase the fire power of its anti-aircraft vehicles. The first prototype, was T61 based on M2 and equipped with a Maxson turret modified accomodating 4 .50cal machine-guns 50cal called M45. The M45 turret was accepted with enthusiasm and was also assembled on M3 and M5 Personnel Carriers. M3 equipped with M45 was called M16 Multiple Gun Motor Carriage whereas M5 equipped with the same turret was called M17 Multiple Gun Motor Carriage. After the war M16 was the only model of the series M3 to being preserved in the American army. It was improved by the addition of additional armour-plates on the sides of the superstructure, a higher position of the turret. This version was baptized M16A1 MGMC and was used in particular during the war of Korea. M16 was produced to 2877 specimens by White in 1943. It 628 should be added there M13 converted into M16 and 109 T10E1 converted into M16. M17 was produced to 1000 specimens by Harvester in 1944.

M3A1 Scout Car

The M3A1 Scout Car was developed by White Motor Co in 1938 on the basis of commercial chassis also used by the parents models T7 and M3 Scout Car. This machine was produced to carry out fast reconnaissance missions above all on hard ways. The M3A1 had a crew of 2 men: the driver and the commander plus 6 passengers (in the back compartment of troop - opened with the top). This compartment counted indeed 6 seats: two directed forwards, both directed towards the sides and two directed backwards. The remainder of this back compartment consisted of 2 large trunks of arrangements located on the sides. The M3A1 Scout Car was 5.51 m long, 2.03 m broad and 1.99 m in height and weighed 5617 kg. The armament was made up in theory of a .50cal machine-gun and of a machine-gun .30cal mounted on mobile mountings sliding along a rail making the turn of the compartment of troop and the cockpit. The compartment of troop did not comprise a back door and the access was done via the side doors of the cockpit or spanning the walls. The windshield of the cockpit was equipped with a retractable armoured shutter, for the conditions of combat. The engine assembled in front was a Hercules JXD gasoline developing 110 hp, coupled with a transmission comprising 5 speeds (4/1). The radiator placed in front of the engine was protected by an armoured shutter made up from 4 swivelling horizontal blades (closed in condition of combat). In front, the M3A1 Scout Car was equipped with a roller to help the vehicle in very broken ground. The suspension of the leaf springs type comprised 2 axles equipped each one with 2 wheels. The two back wheels were driving and those of front were used for the direction which was obtained via a simple steering wheel located on the left in the cockpit. The M3A1 embarked 113.4 gasoline L, which allowed it an autonomy of approximately 400 km on its own fuel. The engine Hercules JXD allowed it a maximum speed on road from approximately 97 km/h. The shielding was 6 mm only safe for the armoured shutter of the cockpit which was thick 12 mm. The M3A1 Scout Car did not have any bottom shielding what made it very vulnerable to the mines. Radio embarked was of type SCR 506, 508 or 510. The M3A1 Scout Car was used by the units of Cavalry. Because of a very significant pressure on the ground, Scout Car was a vehicle of road and not all-ground where its performances were rather poor. It is in fact to increase the cross-country performances of this vehicle that M2 Halftrack Car was created. A total of 20918 specimens were produced by White between 1939 and 1944.

US M8 Greyhound

Of all models developped by the Americans during the Second World War, few were used to the combat within the units of reconnaissance of US Army: M8 Greyhound Armored Car, M20 Utility Car and the M3A1 Scout Car. The other models developped were without a future or yielded to the British like T17, T17E1 and T17E2. The M3A1 was a vehicle of reconnaissance on road, M8 was a fast reconnaissance cross-country vehicle whereas M20 was rather a cross-country transport and command vehicle.
In July 1941, specifications for a self-propelled gun with wheels, were emitted by the very new Tank Destroyer. This vehicle was to be fast, to be equipped with 6 driving wheels, to be equipped with a discrete silhouette, to have cross-country capacities and to be armed with the anti-tank gun of 37 mm. Its weight was to be also weak and it was to be convertible in carrier of mortar, transport of ammunition or anti-aircraft vehicle. However, the experiment of the models of the series M3 Stuart in North Africa showed that the anti-tank possibilities of the gun of 37 mm were rather poor. The idea to use this armoured car as anti-tank weapons was thus abandoned but the Tank Destroyer Command as well as the units of reconnaisance of US Cavalry wished being equipped with a such machine for their reconnaissance missions. It is the model of Ford, T22, which gained the competition between the three companies. A total of 11667 specimens of M8 were produced by Ford Motor Co between March 1943 and April 1945.
M8 started production in March 1943 and was used for the first time in Italy in September 1943. It replaced quickly the old M3A1 Scout Car in the reconnaissance missions because of its cross-country capacities and its higher fire power. It was incorpored in the units of reconnaissance of the Cavalry. However, its employment in Italy was rather limited because of confined nature of engagements and their hardness, few favourable to a vehicle little armoured and designed for missions in-depth enabling it to use its speed. After the landing in Normandy in June 1944 and to have put the Norman bocage behind them, the Allies laid out of all space necessary to use their M8 in an optimum way. At this time, M8 was the standard vehicle of reconnaissance of the sections of armoured cars. Each section was made up of 3 vehicles. They were used jointly with Jeeps. The armament and the shielding of M8 did not enable it to engage the enemy tanks but the gun of 37 mm proved its utility against the enemy infantry and the light vehicles.

M20 Utility Car

Ford Motor Co developed in April 1943 a version without turret of this famous US vehicle of the Second World War, M20 Utility Car. M20 was rigorously identical to M8, except that the turret was removed to the profit of a superstructure slightly armoured and opened to the top protecting an entirely refitted central compartment. This compartment was equipped in front of a foldable table for the consultation of operation maps, foldable benches on the two sides and a seat for the machine gunner to the back. M20 in was equipped more with two radios SCR-508 or SCR-694. The crew was consisted of the driver and his assistant plus 4 passengers.
The armament of M20 consisted of a .50cal machine-gun (12.7 mm) mounted on a circular mounting M49 to the back of the compartment of combat and a bazooka of 60 mm M9A1 and M1 rifles. A stock of 1000 rounds of 12.7 mm was embarked like 10 rockets for the bazooka.
M20 was a very handy and appreciated transport and command vehicle, which was used until the end of the conflict and by afterwards. A total of 3791 specimens were produced in 1943-1944 by Ford Motor Co. M20 was used as utility vehicle by the units of reconnaissance and staff. As for M8 from which it was derived, M20 was a difficult target because its high speed enabling it to put itself out of reach. At high speed, these two vehicles was in any event quasi impossible to target for an anti-tank weapon. Because of its function of vehicle of reconnaissance, M8 Greyhound announced the arrival of the liberty forces in the cities and the villages of France and Western Europe. Towards the end 1944, the front was stabilized and the possibilities of carrying out reconnaissance missions were fewer, the allied advance being very slowed down and stopped by places. M8 and the other allied armoured cars were used at this time as vehicles of support and protection of the sides of allied divisions. At the time of the battle of the Ardennes, the allied units of reconnaissance were very hustled by the pressure of Panzers which they could not be opposed. It were often obliged to beat retirement sometimes by giving up their material and vehicles as in Poteau (14th Cavalry Group). Finally the German offensive in the Ardennes was contained and pushed back and the walk of Allies towards the victory could begin again at the beginning of 1945 and the units reconnaissance to take again their task by locating the increasingly rare enemy armoured tanks and infantrymen concentrations. They met less and less in fact resistance, Wehrmacht being in rout and in complete deliquescence. Very often these units were enough to capture whole cities without the use of tanks or troops of infantry.

T17E1 Staghound

In July 1941, Ordnance Department ordered the realization of a medium armoured car armed with the gun of 37 mm on the basis of British specifications, large amateurs of this kind of vehicle. Two versions in fact were ordered, one with 4 wheels and the other with 6 wheels. Chevrolet accepted the contract for the model of 4 wheels which was baptized T17E1. The prototype was finalized at the end of 1941 and the tests gave satisfaction. An order of 2000 specimens was immediately carried out. On this total, 300 specimens were reserved to the British who baptized them Staghound. As the American army were not interested, it is all the production which was yielded to the British (2844 specimens).
The T17E1 which was a medium vehicle in theory weighed approximately 15 tons what was rather heavy. It was propelled by two engine GMC 270 developing each one 97 hp, distributing their power to the four driving wheels. This group-engine allowed Staghound a maximum speed on road of 89 km/h and the 423 L of gasoline of itsfuel tanks allowed it an autonomy of approximately 800 km. Two retractable fuel tanks were assembled on each sides of the hull between the wheels. The crew of Staghound was composed of 5 men: the driver and his assistant in the hull, the commander, the loader and the gunner in the turret. The access to the vehicle was made via the two trap doors present behind the steering wheels or the trap doors of the turret. The turret was armed with the gun of 37 mm M6 flanked of a coaxial machine-gun .30cal (7.62 mm). The hull was also equipped with a .30cal machine-gun. Staghound embarked approximately 100 projectiles of 37 mm and 5000 rounds of 7.62 mm. The turret was equipped with a hydraulic system of rotation but the elevation of the gun was done manually via a wheel. The gun was equipped with a gyrostabilisator who allowed its use in move. The gun of 37 mm M6 had a length of 56 calibers and an initial speed varying between 776 and 884 m/s. The gun of 37 mm could transpierce 48 mm of shielding under 30° to 500 m. It fired only perforating projectiles. The gun had a full traverse of 360° and an elevation of 45° and a depression of 10°. The breech-block of M6 was semi-automatic.

US Bantam BRC 40 4x4 Truck

The Willys Jeep is without any doubt one of the most important vehicles of the twentieth century. Still today it makes the happiness of many collectors and is still manufactured in several countries in the world (China, India...). Many manufacturers is inspired some to carry out light 4x4 like Mistibushi or Nissan... The history of the Jeep starts in the Thirties, when the US Army asked for the realization of a light cross-country vehicle to replace the horse hitherto used by US Army. This honest animal, however, could transport one passenger, very little material and required a constant and daily maintenance. The horse was sometimes replaced by the motor bike with sidecar but the latter offered that few improvements. The first tests will not take action pursuant. The precise and final specifications were lying on paper only in June 1940, they described a vehicle with: 4 driving wheels and a weight of 540 kg. The Army very impatient required that 70 vehicles be produced in the 75 days! A total of 135 invitations were carried out but only two manufacturers answered it favorably: Bantam and Willys.
At Bantam, a young engineer, Karl Probst, carried out the exploit to conceive the plans of the future vehicle in only 5 days. It had well left to respect the very demanding delays of the American army (75 days for the prototype and 120 days for the first specimen of production). This speed ensures to Bantam the first set, if one can say. However, the vehicle of Bantam weighed 920 kg in the place of 590 kg required by the Army.
The prototype of Bantam renamed Bantam Reconnaissance Car 40 (BCR 40) was tested very hard by the soldiers successfully. However observers of Willys and Ford took part in these tests with the great anger of people of Bantam. In fact the soldiers had doubts about the capacity of Bantam to produce its vehicle in mass. Bantam will however deliver its 70 specimens after some modifications but the needs of the Army concerning this kind of vehicles had explode. An order of 1500 specimens was thus addressed to Bantam but at this time begins a fight of influence orchestrated by Willys and Ford. Ultimately an ordering of 1500 vehicles (each one) was addressed to the three companies at the end of 1940. At that time Willys had finalized its own prototype, nearly identical copy of the BCR, the Willys Quad. Little time after Ford also proposed its prototype, Ford Pigmy, also strongly inspired to it by the model of Bantam.

US Willys MB 4x4 Truck early

US Army tested three vehicles on the level of the endurance and the effectiveness. Thanks to its very powerful engine, Go-Devil, the model of Willys passes largely at the head. Despite everything each producer realized its order of 1500 specimens (1500 BCR 40, 1500 Ford GP and 1500 Willys MA). However the model of Willys which exceeded and by far, the weight limits required. While cutting down metal nonnecessary, a little everywhere, and while applying only one coat of paint, Willys arrived at a weight just below the limit. The tests continued on a higher level and even to the combat (Africa, China, Russia) whereas the Americans were not yet in war.
Finally, it is Willys which gained the competition between the 3 manufacturers. Bantam which had made the large development was confined to the production of the trailers of the Jeep, a true affront. The majority of these models of preproduction were sent in the USSR and Great Britain. The winner of the match, Willys, then receives an order of 16000 specimens, at the end of 1941. The army, however required modifications and Willys proposed a new model Willys MB.
he request having become enormous when the United States entered in war, Willys could not any more only ensure it. It thus was invited (firmly) to yielded its plans, patents and licences to the Ford giant who will put in production a version improved of its Ford GP, Ford GPW.
Willys MB was in the beginning equipped with a wrought iron grill (Slat Grill) and 25808 specimens were carried out with this grill. However from the entry in production of Ford GPW, the two models were equipped with a buckled plate grill. If Willys produced all its models in its establishments of Toledo, Ford decentralized its production in 5 sites. Willys starting from the end 1941 until the middle of 1945, produced approximately 360000 specimens of Willys MB whereas Ford, starting from at the beginning of 1942 until the end of the war produced 280000 specimens of Ford GPW.

US Willys MB 4x4 Truck late

Ford GPW was hardly different from Willys MB. In fact the differences brought by Ford were carried out to conform the Jeep to the means of production of the automobile giant.
The chassis of Ford GPW was equipped with a cross-piece out of reversed U and different supports of shock absorbers. Let us note that all Jeeps GPW were equipped with a buckled plate grill.
The Americans and the British worked together on a light cross-country vehicle able to be airborne for missions of commando. This vehicle intended for British SAS (Special Air Service) was to be used at the origin at the time of raids in the Middle East counters enemy airfields. These vehicles were to quickly transport men and artillery through the desert towards their target without being located.
These specimens were painted in sands yellow. To reduce the enemy opposition quickly, Jeeps SAS were equipped with five machine-guns: a couple on swivelling mounting to the back, another fixed couple in the front-right and a last always in front but on the left (this provision could change according to crews). Because of the front machine-guns, these Jeeps did not have a windshield. For long ways in the desert, two additional tanks (of a total capacity of 135 L) were installed to the back and a new improved system of cooling was installed.
The large defect of the Jeep is the lack of protection for the crew, which could be dangerous at the time of reconnaissance missions. In 1941, the Smart firm carried out an armoured version of the Jeep. The windshield was replaced by a large armoured shield equipped with slits of vision. This version was baptized M25 Scout Car. However the addition of shielding modified the weight of the vehicle unfavourably. The engine tired quickly and the suspension was put at hard test. In spite of several modifications to reduce the weight, M25 Scout Car was finally abandoned.

US Ford GPA 4x4 Truck

In April 1941, the Army ordered an amphibian version of the Jeep to Ford. From the GPW Ford carried out indeed an amphibious model equipped with a tight body in the shape of boat, which it presented on February 18, 1942. This rather heavy machine however, was manufactured to 7900 specimens. Not very popular near the Americans, this version was especially used by the Russians.
The Jeep was one of the vehicles most popular in the allied forces. This cross-country multifunction vehicle offered very varied employment opportunities. Indeed this small robust vehicle adapted to all the grounds and was easily transformable.
he Jeeps were used as fast vehicles of reconnaissance, transport of personnel, medical vehicle, tractor of artillery (anti-tank gun of 37 mm), mortar carrier or transport of material (with trailer or not). This machine passed everywhere and equipped considerable motorized units (if not all) and gave to Allied capacity displacement unequalled during the Second World War. During this conflict, the Jeep was used on all fronts, in all the liberty forces.

US Dodge WC51 4x4 Truck

The family of Doge WC is a range of military trucks that one can divide into 3 families: the light 4x4 1/2-ton, the medium 4x4 3/4-ton and the heaviest 6x6 1 1/2-ton. These vehicles will be used as a basis for any kind of specific use or multi-roles models; like ambulances, vehicles of reconnaissance, mobile workshops, command cars. Normally, code WC was to be used only for the 1/2-ton because W means 1941 and C means half-ton but this code in spite of will be very preserved for the heavier vehicles 3/4-ton and 1 1/2-ton. The vehicles of range WC succeed a series of prototypes produced in 1940, the VC 4x4 (V for 1940 and C for half-ton). The WC half-tone will be developed starting from the G-505 prototype developped at the point of the paddle of the 2nd world war. Half-ton (WC-1 with WC-50) were produced with 79771 specimens between the end 1940 and 1942 at the request of War Department (31935 (T207) + 14566 (T211) + 28537 (T215)). Let us note that 80% of the elements of the half-ton are interchangeable with those of the 3/4-ton.
