M4 High Speed Tractor (155mm)

M4 High Speed Artillery Tracked Tractor Tractor built on the chassis of the obsolete M2 light tank and developed to tow 155mm Long Tom, 8-inch and 240mm heavy artillery. It had a compartment to carry the artillery crew with a Browning M2 50 calibre machine gun for self-defence, and space reserved for the storage of heavy ammunition which was handled with the aid of a crane. A version was also developed to tow the 90mm anti-aircraft and 3-inch anti-tank guns, with the crane removed. More than 6,000 units were built, including the different variants, and after the Second World War it continued to be used by the armies of many countries, and was even used for civilian service..
