- The M21 motor carrier, which was formalized in June 1943, is one of them.
- Diverting the chassis of the M3 half-track, equipped with an 81mm mortar in the open-top battle compartment.
-The M21 was characterized by the fact that the mortar's legs were placed on the rails on the floor of the fighting compartment, and that it had an angle of fire of 60 degrees left and right and could be fired directly from the vehicle.
-Equipped with a 12.7mm Browning heavy machine gun, and also carries a bazooka, numerous shells, and mines.
