The M8 high-speed tractor was an artillery tractor used by the US Army and Marine Corps from 1950. The M8 is a full-track tractor based on the chassis of the M41 Walker Bulldog light tank.

As work progressed on prototypes of what would become the 76mm gun tank M41, the AOS-895-3 engine and CD-500-3 transmission replaced the powertrain in the M8, and this vehicle was standardized as the M8A1. The towing and platform payload capacities remained the same as those of the M8.

M8A1全车总重为15.7吨，使用2台凯迪拉克6缸汽油机，最大输出马力为220马力，功重比为14.02马力/吨。 相对来说机动性还是非常优秀的，但是该车的防御力就有点逊色了：装甲最厚处仅有44毫米，而且还是个“敞篷车”，这使得该车在伴随步兵突击时相对脆弱。

The types covered in the book are the M2 7-ton HST used primarily by the Army Air Force, the M4 18-ton HST, M5 13-ton HST, M6 38-ton HST and lastly the M8A1 HST all designed to tow artillery pieces and carry some associated ammunition and crews.
