About the U.S. 40 Ton Tank Transporter "Dragon
Wagon"
During the Second World War,
the development of heavy tanks continued at a fevered pitch. To deploy these
tanks to the front line, or retrieve them when damaged or broken, the necessity
of a large-scale transport vehicle was heightened. In April of 1943, the U.S.
started production of "The Dragon Wagon", one of the biggest tank transport
vehicles of WWII. Constructed around an armored cabin and a sturdy trailer, it
boasted a loading capacity of 40 tons. Also assisting in the transport of boats
for river crossing operations, the Dragon Wagon was a great advantage to the
advancement of the Allied Forces.
