M4A1 81mm Mortar Halftrack  
Details: Based on the M2 Halftrack, 572 M4 Halftracks were built between 1940 and 1942. These vehicles also carried the rearwards firing 81mm Mortar which was supposed to be dismounted before firing. Naturally the troops fired from the safety of halftrack.

Resultantly these, and a further 600 new vehicles, were rebuilt from late 1942 with improvements that allowed the mortar to be fired safely from inside the vehicle. These were joined by the M21MMC (US38) in early 1944. Used on all fronts.
