The M24 Chaffee was a light tank that played a significant role for the United States Army during World War II and the Korean War. Developed as a replacement for the outdated M5 Stuart, the Chaffee was designed to fulfill reconnaissance and infantry support missions with its combination of firepower, mobility, and relatively light armour. The M24 Chaffee was armed with a potent 75mm main gun, providing good firepower against enemy infantry and light vehicles. It also featured a coaxial .30 caliber machine gun and a .50 caliber anti-aircraft machine gun. While the tank’s armour was relatively thin, ranging from 12mm to 38mm, it offered protection against small arms fire and shell fragments, suiting its role as a reconnaissance vehicle.
