The air portable M56 ‘Scorpion’. Armed with a 90mm gun, the Scorpion had quite a bite for such a small package. Whilst the gun is formidable, the armour and crew protection is… perhaps not. Vehicles that can be transported by aircraft have been tested a lot, such as the Tetrarch. This vehicle was an light tank that would be the first British, air-portable tank using the Hamilcar Glider Find out more here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8yk3bWPaAQ Footage courtesy of British Pathe | The Tank Mu

Going back 10 years into the Toadman's Tank Pictures archives brings a video of a M56 Scorpion 90mm Self-propelled anti-tank gun. This video was taken in January 2014 at the now closed Military Vehicle Technology Foundation, aka "The Littlefield Collection". This vehicle was sold in 2014. I'm not sure where it ended up or where it is currently located. #tank #panzer #Museum #california #worldoftanks #warthunder #usarmy | Toadman's Tank Pictures
