Description: | Select Guide Rating Organised chronologically by type, American Tanks of World War II offers a highly-illustrated guide to the main armoured fighting vehicles used by the US Army during World War II. Each featured profile includes authentic markings, colour schemes, and full specifications – a key reference guide for military modellers and WWII enthusiasts. With the United States producing almost 90,000 AFVs during World War II, American tanks made up the bulk of those deployed by the western Allies, and were even supplied through the lend-lease scheme to the Soviet army on the Eastern Front. American Tanks of World War II explores the tanks, self-propelled guns, halftracks and armoured cars deployed by American forces, from the Torch landings in Algeria to the hard fighting in Normandy and the bitter Ardennes offensive. |
