There were also other tracked trucks used in Military service
AutoCar
Chevrolet
Half tracks were around before WWII but saw most use during that war.
GMC
Ford
Ford actually has a story none of the other companies had, while just about every allied nation was supplied with just about every piece of equipment made, Ford fought on both sides of the war.
Canada |
Australia |
Germany |
Ford had a plant in Germany and some half- tracks were
manufactured there.
Other tracked vehicles included the Studebaker Weasels
Many half-tracks survived the war in private ownership, some even went on to perform public service
weird though as it may seem in some cases.
Or they went into private business
Another company to enter tracked production was Allis Chalmers with the M7 tractor
Most other countries also produced their own tracked vehicles, manufacturers that today you would give a double take if you saw one, Citroen and Alfa Romeo for instance.
