used half-tracks in World War II. With wheels in front and a tank-like
track system in the rear, the M3 served many purposes. Able to carry up
to 12 men, the M3 could also house large weapons, tow artillery, or
transport troops. The M3 could be equipped with a variety of armaments,

mortars.

Willys Overland Jeep MB
The
Bantam Car Company won the opening round of the contest to satisfy the
US army's 1940 specification for a light four wheel drive but Willys
Overland won the battle and, some would say, the war. To ensure supply
in war-time the Army decided on a second supplier - Ford. Between 1941
and 1945 Willys and Ford built about 700,000 of the vehicle.

SBD-6 Dauntless
Designed
in 1938 and accepted by the U.S. Navy in February 1939, six months
before the start of World War II, the Douglas SBD (for Scout Bomber
Douglas) represented prewar technology. Fortunately, its design was
quite adaptable to changes dictated by combat experience, such as
increased armor protection for the crew and self-sealing fuel tanks.
Above all, it was a compact, rugged dive-bomber that could take a lot of
punishment.

gun]

fighter planes in World War II. Boasting an Impressive combat ratio of
11:1 against enemy fighters, the Corsair is credited with over 2,000

Vehicles U.S.
LIGHT TANK:
The LIGHT TANK is an infantryman's worst nightmare. A driver-controlled
cannon and coaxial machinegun coupled with a cupola-mounted machinegun
for anti-air and anti-infantry makes this two-person vehicle very
versatile. Be careful of Heavy Tanks or hidden anti-tank infantry.
APC:
The APC vehicle is one of the most versatile vehicles on the
battlefield. It can provide light armor protection for up to 6 soldiers
as well as anti-air and anti-infantry support from it's machinegun.
Also, any soldier seated in the passenger compartment will automatically
be healed and their ammo will be replenished. It will also replenish the
ammo of any vehicle within a 10 meter radius of the APC.
FIGHTER:
The FIGHTER is the fastest and most maneuverable vehicle in the sky. It
combines excellent air cover and decent ground attack.
DIVE-BOMBER:
The DIVE BOMBER is a 2-person vehicle which provides excellent ground
attack with decent air cover. An empty back-gunner position is useful
when a teammate needs a quick pick-up.
SCOUT CAR:
This 2-person vehicle is the fastest on land. It's also the least
armored. It is best used to quickly penetrate the opponent's line or for
those quick getaways.
