GIS Elementary Interests M18 Hellcat tank destroyer This tank is the result of the superior German tanks during WW2. The Americans needed a hard hitting, fast, and maneuverable anti-tank platform. It could go over 40 KPH and had a 76.2 mm anti-tank gun. At reverse, it could go to a max of 25 KPH. It saw active service in Europe, and the pacific during the years of 1944-1945. It also served in the Korean war. It was designed in 1942 and manufactured in 1943. It's older brother is the M36 with a 90 mm gun. The M36 was slower than the M18. The M18's younger brother is the M10 which was slower than the M18 in every way. They all had no roof on the top of their turret and very thin Armour (which was 14-8 millimeters) which made them and the crew vulnerable to grenades, machine guns, and enemy tanks. So the rule of the M18 was hit-and-run. It could hide behind cover and shoot and reverse and get behind cover to safety. 2,507 units where produced.
