着陸車両追跡 (LVT) was a type of amphibious vehicle used by the United States and its allies during World War II and the Korean War. LVTs were designed to transport troops and cargo from ships to shore, and could also operate on land as armored personnel carriers or tanks. LVTs were based on the Alligator, a commercial vehicle developed by Donald Roebling in the 1930s.
ザ アメリカ海軍 and Marine Corps adopted the LVT in 1941, and improved its design and performance throughout the war. LVTs played a vital role in many amphibious operations, such as the invasions of Guadalcanal, Tarawa, Iwo Jima, and Okinawa. LVTs were also used by other countries, such as Britain, Canada, Australia, and Japan. LVTs were eventually replaced by more advanced amphibious vehicles in the 1950s and 1960s.
