Pioneer of Tank Destroyer
The M18 Hellcat was an American tank destroyer developed to counter the
German Army tanks, and it featured an open top design turret and
powerful 76mm gun, plus a main gun breech rotated 45 degrees around the
gun barrel to save space in the turret interior. It had a compact,
lightweight hull, automatic transmission and the first torsion bar
suspension seen on U.S. armor. Its radial 9-cylinder engine at the hull
rear was capable of 80km/h maximum speed which was the highest speed
among tracked vehicles during WWII. The production started in July, 1943
and the Hellcat was in service for the first time at the Italian Front
in 1944. After that, this tank destroyer was deployed in the
North-Western European and Pacific War theaters, notably besting the
German Army tanks with super performance and firepower based on
hit-and-run tactics. The Hellcat contributed to U.S. victory as a
pioneer of tank destroyers.
