Το M39 Armored Utility Vehicle (T41) ήταν ένα αμερικανικό τεθωρακισμένο όχημα που σχεδιάστηκε κατά τη διάρκεια του Δευτέρου Παγκοσμίου Πολέμου, το οποίο υπηρέτησε σε εκείνη τη σύγκρουση και στον πόλεμο της Κορέας. Όπως και ένας αριθμός οχημάτων αυτού του τύπου, κατασκευάστηκε χρησιμοποιώντας ένα υπάρχον πλαίσιο, αυτό του M18 Hellcat.

Περισσότερες πληροφορίες:

The M39 Armored Utility Vehicle was a versatile and adaptable vehicle that served in various roles during World War II and the Korean War. It was based on the chassis of the M18 Hellcat tank destroyer, which was modified to accommodate a crew of three and up to eight passengers. The M39 was designed to tow the 3-inch Gun M6, a powerful antitank weapon that could penetrate most enemy armor. The M39 could also be used as a command and reconnaissance vehicle, equipped with radios and an auxiliary generator. The M39 had a .50 caliber machine gun for self-defense, and could carry additional weapons and ammunition. The M39 had a top speed of 50 mph and a range of 100 miles on road. It had a torsion bar suspension and a Continental radial gasoline engine that produced 400 hp.
The M39 saw limited service in Europe at the end of World War II, but was widely used in Korea by both the US Army and the US Marine Corps. The M39 proved to be useful for transporting troops and supplies, evacuating casualties, and providing fire support. The M39 was also involved in some of the fiercest battles of the war, such as Heartbreak Ridge, Old Baldy, and Boulder City. The M39 was praised for its reliability, mobility, and adaptability. It was eventually replaced by newer vehicles such as the M59 APC and the M75 APC in the late 1950s.
