Scouting About
1939 saw the debut of the M3A1 scout car, which was an important facet
of mechanized U.S. forces. This 4WD vehicle could get 80km/h out of its
87hp 6-cylinder engine, and packed a punch with one 12.7mm and up to two
7.62mm rail-mounted machine guns. It could hold 8 personnel, and was
equipped with a front roller to help overcome obstacles, plus armor
radiator louvers and armor windshield and side covers. Around 21,000
were produced, and deployed by U.S. forces in the Philippines, Tunisia,
Sicily and more. Over 3,000 were also supplied to the Red Army under the
auspices of the "Lend-Lease" program; Soviet forces used it in
Mechanized and Tank Divisions, fulfilling reconnaissance, command car
and even towing roles.
