The M35 Gun Truck was a modified version of the M35 2½-ton cargo truck used by the U.S. military during the Vietnam War. Designed for convoy protection, it featured heavy armament, including mounted machine guns, automatic grenade launchers, and sometimes even larger caliber weapons. The truck's modifications included reinforced armor plating to protect the crew from small arms fire and improvised explosive devices. M35 Gun Trucks were crucial for escorting supply convoys through dangerous areas, offering fire support and defense. Their intimidating appearance and firepower made them an essential asset in ensuring convoy safety in the hostile environments of Vietnam.
