Dodge WC 51-52 history

Designed in April 1942 from the model Dodge WC 3 U. S. light vehicles. the Dodge WC (for Weapons Carrier) models 51 and 52 (same version but with a 2. 27 tonnes Braden winch) allowed the Allies to develop a robust and reliable transport truck.

Equipped with all-terrain tires. the Dodge WC can both convey arms and ammunitions (as the name suggests) as well as personal since wooden benches can be installed in that case. During the year 1944. 63 133 Dodge WC Dodge vehicles were produced.

Several models are created using the WC 51 chassis  such as the Dodge ambulance (WC 54 WC and 64 kD). command vehicle - or command car - (WC 56 and WC 57 for model with winch) or the communication vehicle (WC 58). Finally. a troop transport Dodge is created. it is elongated to accommodate more soldiers and is produced in 6x6: the WC 62.

Produced on a large scale. Dodge WC were particularly present during the battle of Normandy and were very suitable for muddy roads. This is the most famous military car  after the Jeep.  Thus. it is widely reused after the Second World War in many armies such as those of France or Great-Britain.
