M-8 "Greyhound"

After nearly a month, I finally make myself come back to update. So now, I present to you the M8 Greyhound light wheeled reconnaissance armored vehicle(M8“灰狗”轻型轮式侦察装甲车).

Why did I choose this vehicle as my project? Because I recently played War Thunder's Chinese tech tree, and this vehicle is the starting vehicle of that tree. Personally, I think it is fast, has relatively good firepower for its class, and has a pleasing appearance, Of course ,The real world is the same.

The M8 light armored car was a 6x6 armored vehicle produced by Ford in the United States during World War II, mainly used by the U.S. and British armies in Europe and the Far East. The British named the M8 the 'Greyhound(灰狗).' Even as late as 2006, some Third World countries still had M8s in service. Compared with similar German vehicles of World War II, although the U.S. had a large number of wheeled armored vehicles, their variety was limited and their performance lagged behind. At this time, the M8 wheeled tank destroyer, which took a different development path, filled the gap for American wheeled armored reconnaissance vehicles.
