The M74 Tank Recovery Vehicle was an engineer vehicle used by the U.S. Army in the 1950s. It was designed to cope with the heavier weights of the M26 Pershing and M47 Patton tanks, which were entering service at that time. The M74 was based on the chassis of the M4A3 Sherman tank, and had a hydraulic winch, a front-mounted spade, and an A-frame for lifting and towing operations.
The M74 also had a .50 caliber machine gun and a .30 caliber machine gun for self-defense. The M74 was produced by Bowen-McLaughlin-York from 1953 to 1958, by converting over 1000 Sherman tanks into recovery vehicles. Some M74s were also converted from M32B1 Armored Recovery Vehicles by Rock Island Arsenal. The M74 was used by the U.S. Army in post-World War II Germany, and also by other countries such as Belgium, Israel, Spain, and Portugal. The M74 was replaced by the M88 Recovery Vehicle in the 1960s.
