Description
The Hellcat’s prodigious speed was attained by keeping it’s armour tono more than 1″ thick. Hellcat crews quickly took advantage of thevehicle’s speed to minimise the enemy’s ability to pierce its thin armour.Hellcats used their speed to outflank and penetrate the side and back of theheavily armoured German Tiger and Panther tanks.
The M18 Hellcat saw service in the Western Front in the main. However it alsosaw action in the Pacific and in Italy. The US military also supplied the M18 toChinese Nationalist forces opposing the Japanese in the Pacific theatre. As thiswas something of an overkill situation against weakly armoured Japanese tanks,the Hellcat was more often used in a fire support role.
Post war, the Hellcat would see service with several nations and it is stillin use with the Venezualan Army!
