M8/M20 Greyhound Scout Car from Warlord Games

Bolt Action: M8/M20 Greyhound Scout Car

The M8 Greyhound was a popular armored car that served American and British troops well during the war. With a crew of four soldiers manning a 37mm cannon and having access to machine guns as secondary weapons, including anti-aircraft guns, the M8 proved to be a reliable reconnaissance vehicle. Its speed, hence the name "Greyhound," allowed it to reach speeds of up to 55 mph. The armor was sufficient to protect the crew from small arms fire, with speed being their greatest defense. They were typically deployed in pairs to scout enemy lines, quickly retreat, and provide mutual covering fire.

With this set you can build either the M8 with the familiar turret and the 37mm cannon, or the M20 armored car.
