M41A3 Walker Bulldog Light Tank

This U.S. light tank was first produced in 1951 and was air transportable. Some 5,000 were built, but only a few took part in the Korean War for test purposes only. They saw extensive service in Vietnam. It was replaced by the more sophisticated and air mobile M551 Sheridan.
