M75, Armored personnel carrier at Battleship Memorial Park, Mobile, United States
The M75 armored personnel carrier measures approximately 17 feet (5.2 meters) in length and was built with welded steel armor protecting against small arms fire and shrapnel during transport operations.
Developed by International Harvester Corporation in the early 1950s, the M75 entered service during the Korean War with 1,729 units produced before manufacturing ceased in 1954 due to costs.
