En bok signerad Skvadronsignal the revue «M3 Medium Tank Walk Around – Squadron Signal SS5712» .

Den M3 (M3) Medium Tank was designed as an interim answer to European battlefield conditions at the start of World War II. The tank was required to have heavier armor and a gun twice the size of the M2A1. Additionally, plans needed to be ready in 60 days. The solution was the M3’s unconventional design, which features a 75mm main gun mounted in a sponson on the right, front of the hull. The British dubbed their version ‘General Grant’ and named the US Army version the ‘General Lee.’ This book takes a detailed look at the M3 Medium Tank with more than 200 photographs, color profiles and detailed line drawings. Doyle; 80 pages.

En bok signerad Skvadronsignal the revue «Pre-Standardized Jeep Color Walk Around – Squadron Signal SS5711» .

Three distinct versions of a reconnaissance car were produced before they were standardized into the World War II-era Jeep. Bantam, Ford and Willys produced different models to win military contracts. Bantam delivered 70 pre-production units in December 1940. Eight of these models featured four-wheel steering. In 1941, the U.S. government ordered 1,500 units from each of the manufacturers. The best qualities of the three models were incorporated into the final standardized Jeep. This book takes a detailed look at Jeep’s early evolution with more than 250 photographs, color profiles and detailed line drawings. Doyle; 80 pages.

En bok Skvadronsignal a revue «GPA/DUKW Color Walk Around – Squadron Signal SS5710» .

The US used 2 main wheeled amphibians during WWII: the 1/4-ton GPA and the 2-1/2 ton DUKW. Although the former was a Ford Motor Company product and the later carried the label of arch-rival General Motors, the 2 bore a similarity due to their common designer – Roderick Stephens. Despite their shared origins and cutting-edge design, the GPA and DUKW had vastly contrasting careers. Production of the GPA, essentially an amphibious Jeep, ended in 1943, just as the career of the DUKW, a virtual aquatic truck, was on its way to becoming the ‘gold standard’ by which other amphibians are measured to this day. After taking part in the Allied invasion of Sicily in July 1943, the DUKW went on to see action in nearly every other American amphibious landing in WWII and came back to see service during the Korean War as well. Illustrated with 263 high quality photographs, color art, and profiles. Doyle; 80 pages.

En bok signerad Skvadronsignal the revue «Sd.Kfz.251 Color Walk Around – Squadron Signal SS5708» .

Considered the German Army’s most important armored half-track in WWII, the Sd.Kfz.251 allowed the infantry to keep up with the Heer’s fast armored elements. The vehicle came in 4 models and 23 variants, but the Ausf.D was the most produced model. In fact, Ausf.Ds represented nearly 70 percent of Sd.Kfz.251s built during wartime. The type’s simplified design was the main contributor to this variant being produced in such substantial numbers, and the Ausf.D was the first of the 251s to have stowage bins built into the sides of the half track. This mass-produced, streamlined vehicle truly proved its worth in WWII and saw action on every front. Illustrated with over 150 color photographs, detailed line drawings, and 8 colored profiles. A must have book for the armor, modeling, history, and military enthusiast. Stapfer; 80 pages.

Cadillac Gage V-100 Commando färg promenad runt. Den mest kända amerikanska pansarbilen från tiden efter andra världskriget, Cadillac Gage Commando – ett mångsidigt, amfibiskt 4×4-fordon – ser fortfarande modern ut trots att den gjorde sin debut 1962. V-100 Commando genomgick många förändringar mot bakgrund av sin omfattande och varierade erfarenhet av spaning, eskort av konvojer, kravallkontroll, säkerhet och som trupptransportfordon. När den bevisade sitt värde för USA:s sydvietnamesiska allierade och senare för de amerikanska styrkorna i Sydostasien, introducerade Cadillac Gage den ena modifieringen efter den andra som svar på förändrade stridsbehov. Även om USA:s militära användning av Commando minskade efter Vietnamkrigets slut, byggdes många Commandos om och tjänar än i dag polisstyrkor och SWAT-team i Europa och USA, medan olika arméer runt om i världen fortfarande använder ättlingar till stridsversionen. Illustrerad med över 200 färgfotografier plus detaljerade linjeteckningar; Doyle.80 sidor.

En bok Skvadronsignal the revue «WWII Motorcycles Color Walk Around – Squadron Signal SS5707» .

US Military Motorcycles of WWII Color Walk Around. During WWII, the United States turned to Harley-Davidson and Indian Motorcycle Company to produce military-worthy motorcycles. Additionally, other Allied powers looked to these companies for bikes through the Lend-Lease program. As a result, Harley-Davidson produced the WLA, the U and UA, and the shaft-drive XA. Indian provided the 340-B and the 741, and the shaft-drive 841. While the WLA, U/UA, 340-B, and 741 saw extensive military use, the shaft-drive bikes from both companies never saw combat. The advent of the Jeep took over the motorcycle’s role in military service, and the bikes were relegated to veteran vehicles of the past. Illustrated with over 200 color photographs, 11 black-and-white photographs and color art by Don Greer. David Doyle. 80 pages.

En bok från Skvadronsignal boken «M26 Pershing Color Walk Around - Squadron Signal SS5706» .

I början av 1942 var det uppenbart att Sherman -tanken inte var någon match för sina tyska motståndare. Tidens amerikanska stridsdoktrin var att amerikanska stridsvagnar inte skulle slåss mot motsatta stridsvagnar och lämnade detta till tankförstörare; de tyska styrkorna vägrade dock att följa denna plan. Ett antal olika modeller med olika chassi-, torn- och pistolkombinationer testades, vilket ledde fram till T26 "tung" tankdesign. Det skulle dröja till 1945 innan denna stridsvagn utvecklades till T26E3 och slutligen såg strid. Den grundläggande utformningen av M26 - beteckningen T26E3 hade fått när den klassificerades som "standard" i mars 1945 - skulle ligga till grund för en lång rad utmärkta stridsvagnar (M46, M47, M48 och M60) som skulle tjäna amerikanska väpnade styrkor i 40 år. Illustrerad med 250 fotografier, färgprofiler och detaljerade linjeteckningar; Doyle. 80 sidor.

En bok signerad Skvadronsignal the magazine «M42 Duster Color Walk Around – Squadron Signal SS5705» .

The US Army began accepting deliveries of the M42 in October 1952, when production ended in 1959, approximately 3,700 units delivered. By the late ’60s, the Duster’s limits seemed to have been reached. The lack of radar tracking system meant the M42 was a ‘fair weather’ shooter against low, slow targets; it just could not keep pace with the new generation of Soviet jet aircraft. As American involvement in Vietnam increased, 3 battalions of Dusters were sent to South Vietnam – initially for anti-aircraft duties, but with clear skies over the South, the M42 was usefully employed as convoy escort, perimeter and base security, and direct fire support. This book takes a detailed look at the M42 Duster with more than 200 photographs, color profiles and detailed line drawings; Doyle. 80 pages.
