Den Valentin Infantry Tank III, a private venture design from Vickers-Armstrong, was the 3rd of Great Britain’s infantry tank designs. Though not the 1st tank to go into battle against the Axis in WWII, the Valentine has the distinction of having the highest production numbers of any wartime British tank, and arguably the most variations. A total of 8,275 Valentines were produced in no fewer than 11 major variants. Early versions of the vehicle were equipped with gasoline engines, while a diesel powered the later Marks. The turret also saw development, with later models fit with a more elongated design. The Valentine received its baptism of fire with the British 8th Army in Operation Crusader in North Africa during July 1941, just the beginning of a long career, as they would eventually take part in combat in both the European and Pacific Theaters. After the war, Valentines continued to serve several British Commonwealth armies as late as the 1950s. Besides fighting under the Union Jack, Valentines saw action with the armed forces of Canada, the Soviet Union, Australia, and New Zealand. Illustrated with 250 photos, plus color profiles and detailed line drawings. Doyle; 88 pages.

historie: Introduced in the early 1960s, the M108/M109 marked the transition from open-topped to fully enclosed self-propelled artillery. Developed simultaneously, the M108 and M109 went from experimental to ‘standard’ classification in July 1963. Production of the M108 was concluded within months, as its 105mm gun was found to be less well-suited than the M109’s 155mm cannon. Both vehicles saw service in Vietnam. In 1972, the M109s were rearmed with longer barrels resulting in the M109A1. Various modifications were introduced in subsequent years, and in the mid-1980s the M109 family was upgraded to include nuclear, chemical, and biological protection – those modified units being redesignated M109A4. Then in February 1990, a version incorporating enlarged turret, improved armor and armament, increased ammunition stowage, NBC protection and microclimate for the crew became available under the designation M109A6, the ‘Paladin,’ a thoroughly modern weapon able to go from road march to pinpoint firing in less than 60 seconds.

Illustrated with more than 315 photographs, plus color profiles and detailed line drawings. Doyle; 88 pages.

En bog signeret Eskadrille signal the book «M3A1 White Scout Car Walk Around – Squadron Signal SS5720» .

The White Motor Company began serial production of the four-wheel-drive M3A1 Scout Car in 1940. Covered in quarter-inch face-hardened armor, the vehicle served the US military as scout, command car, ambulance and in some cases as a gun tractor. Armed with one .50 caliber and two .30 caliber machine guns on a skate rail that completely surrounded the f ighting compartment, the M3A1 saw action in the Philippine tropics, the North African desert and during the 1943 invasion of Sicily. However, US forces soon replaced the open-topped M3A1 with other armored vehicles that afforded better coverage. Because the vehicle was widely exported it served on – heavily used by the Red Army on the Eastern Front and by Free French, Belgian, Czechoslovak and Polish forces throughout WWII. Later, France took the vehicle into combat in colonial wars in Indochina and Algeria. Illustrated with more than 200 photographs, plus color profiles and detailed line drawungs. Doyle; 80 pages.

The light M5 Stuart Tank was a much-upgraded version of the M3 Stuart. Named for Confederate General J.E.B. Stuart, the Stuarts filled the need for a light tank and, in addition to the US, they were supplied to Allied military forces. The leap from the M3 to the M5 Stuart took place in 1941, when the US Ordnance Department accepted a proposal by Cadillac to install double Cadillac V8 engines in the tank and, after remodeling the hull to accommodate the new motors, a new tank, the M5, was born. Reconnaissance units in the front lines of US forces were always accompanied by the agile M5s. With a top speed of 45 miles per hour, armor protection, and firepower, the M5A1 provided powerful support. Though not a match for heavy German armor, the Stuart was more than adequate for dealing with infantry. In addition to the US military, M5s were supplied to Britain, the Soviet Union and France. After WWII, the Stuart saw action in such far-flung places as China, India, and Indochina. Illustrated with more than 190 photographs, plus color profiles and detailed line drawings. Mesko; 80 pages.

En underskrevet dokumentation Eskadrille signal the book «GMC CCKW Truck Walk Around – Squadron Signal SS5718» . As war spread in Asia and war clouds gathered over Europe in the late 1930s, the US Army Quartermaster Corps set out to acquire a tough, new 2-1/2 ton tactical truck that would be up to the task of hauling modern artillery as well as troops and supplies. In the end General Motors filled that need with its all-wheel drive CCKW truck. De første eksemplarer rullede af GMC's Pontiac, Michigan, samlebånd i februar 1941. I september 1942 begyndte Chevrolet-fabrikken i St. Louis, Missouri, også at fremstille CCKW. Dette bind er spækket med detaljerede fotografier og fremhæver ændringer gennem årene af dets service - en trælastvognsseng for at spare på ædle stål, et åbent førerhus for at give mulighed for mere lastrum i skibsrum, 2 designs til aksler, negativt elektrisk system og et spil, der blev installeret på en tredjedel af lastbilerne. Dækker versioner med lang og kort akselafstand plus lastdump-karrosserityper. Gå ikke glip af dette nærbillede af lastbilen, der transporterede amerikanske mænd og materiel til sejr på 3 kontinenter i anden verdenskrig!
