M113A1 A.P.C. VIETNAM
M113A1
1/35th Scale
In production over 30 years. longer than any other armored
vehicle. M113 and its many sub-types serve in the armies of
more than 50 countries. As this is written, over 40,000 M113's
or variants have been built and delivered by FMC or its
licensees.
Battle proven in Vietnam, the M113 enabled a ten-man squad
of infantry to travel behind protective armor in an amphibious
vehicle that carried sufficient weapons to be considered an
offensive weapons system. Its ability to ford streams or even
cross lakes made it an extremely useful vehicle in the
waterlogged jungles of Vietnam.
As experience was gained with the use of the M113 in combat,
numerous modifications were made to the vehicle to increase
both its firepower and crew protection features.
M132 self-propelled flame-thrower was used by U.S. Army and
ARVN units. M132 had a small turret equipped with a flamegun and machine gun, A number of M113s were also used
during the Vietnam war by the Australian armored unitsThey
decided to mount a T50 Cadillac Gage r
ine gun turret.
The Republic of Korea Army units sent
Vietnam acquired a
number of M113s on permanent loan '
the U.S.Army. The
Korean Army's M113s did not have
ina! designed gun
shield kits as applied to U.S.Army's one. Instead, they did
without the gun shield for the .50 caliber and had heart-shaped
armored shields for the two .30 caliber light machine guns
fired fforn rear personnel compartment.
