Military History not Visualized
Published 6 Jul 2018Disclaimer: I was invited to Tank Fest by the Tank Museum.
Why were half-tracks used in the first place? Why not trucks, fully-tracked vehicles or something else? Also, why after the Second World War did the half-track disappear? Why were there no new types produced by major powers?
Big thank you to green_goblin_z for sending me 2 books from my amazon wishlist!
