M24 Chaffee No. 594 from WoT update 1.23.
With the release of update 1.23, the M24 Chaffee No. 594 (USA, LT-5, premium) will be rolled out randomly by developers and supertesters.
Historical background
One of the American projects in 1946 was the testing of the M24 Chaffee tank with a tracked part from the German Sd.Kfz tractor. 8. Its suspension with staggered rollers and tracks with needle bearings had outstanding driving characteristics and was of great interest to researchers. The test results on hard soils were satisfactory, but this cannot be said about viscous soils. Overall, there were no obvious advantages over the stock M24 Chaffee suspension. Testing was stopped and the project was closed.

M24 Chaffee n. 594 dall’aggiornamento WoT 1.23.

Cenni storici
Uno dei progetti americani nel 1946 fu il test del carro armato M24 Chaffee con una parte cingolata del trattore tedesco Sd.Kfz. 8. La sua sospensione con rulli sfalsati e cingoli con cuscinetti ad aghi aveva caratteristiche di guida eccezionali ed è stata di grande interesse per i ricercatori. I risultati dei test sui terreni duri sono stati soddisfacenti, ma lo stesso non si può dire sui terreni viscosi. Nel complesso, non c’erano vantaggi evidenti rispetto alla sospensione M24 Chaffee di serie. Il test è stato interrotto e il progetto è stato chiuso.
