5537504 1/35 World of Tanks: M24 CHAFFEE

Officially designated as the Light Tank M24, the American M24 was given the service name “Chaffee” by the British.

Arguably the best light tank of the war, the vehicle was intended as a replacement for the M5 Stuart. The design departed quite a lot from those of earlier light tanks.

Twin Cadillac engines and Hydramatic transmission enabled the vehicle to achieve high speeds, while torsion-bar suspension granted it good cross-country capabilities.

A new lightweight 75mm gun packed decent firepower into the tank’s turret which, coupled with its low silhouette, was a nice advantage for a light tank.

The M24 was used during the later part of World War II and in several post-war conflicts, from the Korean War to the First Indochina War.
