The M3 Half-Track, an American armored personnel carrier used during World War II and beyond, was often fitted with the M2HB .50 caliber machine gun. The M2HB, a heavy, belt-fed, air-cooled weapon, provided powerful anti-aircraft and anti-infantry capabilities, making the M3 versatile in various combat roles. The half-track's design - wheeled at the front and tracked at the rear - allowed it to navigate rugged terrain while transporting troops and equipment. The M2HB's effective range and firepower made it essential for covering infantry and defending against lightly armored vehicles. The M3, with its mounted M2HB, saw extensive use in Europe, North Africa, and the Pacific.
