halftracks

Wheels and treads

Halftracks are military vehicles with conventional wheels at the front and continuous tracks at the rear, combining a truck's steering with a tank's off-road capability.

They were widely used in World War II for transporting troops and equipment across rough terrain.

The design has largely been replaced by fully tracked or wheeled armored vehicles.
