More details

More info

Includes two M20 Armored Utility Cars and one Jeep.

The Security Section keeps track of the enemy while the tank destroyers work their way into position.

In 1943 the Tank Destroyer Command requested a vehicle that could be a command car, personnel and cargo carrier and mounted an AA multiple MG mount. The result was the M20 Armored Utility Car.

The M20 Armored Utility Car, also known as the M20 Scout Car, was a M8 Greyhound with the turret removed. This was replaced with a low, armoured open-topped superstructure and an anti-aircraft ring mount for a .50 cal M2 heavy machinegun. The M20 was primarily used as a command vehicle and for forward reconnaissance for tank destroyer units.

Originally designated the M10 Armored Utility Car, it was redesignated M20 to avoid confusion with the M10 Wolverine tank destroyer. 3,680 M20s were built by Ford during its two years in production (1943-1944).

It offered high speed and excellent mobility, along with a degree of protection against small arms fire and shrapnel. When employed in the command and control role, the M20 was fitted with additional radio equipment. Though not an amphibious vehicle, it could ford up to a depth of 48".
