extracted text (Extract Text): TOW FOR LONG TOM. A high-speed |
prime mover for our 155-mm. rifle is pro-
vided by the new M-4 tractor, which not |
only drags the big gun many times faster
than the tractor formerly employed but |
also carries the gun crew and some ammu-
nition. The six-bogie-suspension chassis is
the same as that used on the M-4 medium
tank and M-7 and M-10 tank destroyers.
The tractor mounts a .50 AA machine gun.
