Description
A derivative of the U.S. M8 Light Armored Car Greyhound, the U.S. M20 Armored Utility
Car rolled onto the battlefield in 1943. Between 1943 and 1945, approximately 3,791 units
were manufactured. The M20 could carry four passengers and was mainly deployed to the
Tank Destroyer Unit. It was powered by an 110hp gasoline Hercules engine, where its top

commanders table, radio sets and a ring mounted M2 heavy machine gun. Furthermore,
the M20 also came equipped with a M9A1 bazooka as well as M1 Carbines.
