Updated: Feb 21

New video on the 🇺🇸 M42 Duster, a twin 40mm self-propelled anti-aircraft gun. The video covers:

  1. Its basic capabilities (range, tracking speed, etc)

  2. The same basics of the M16A1 Multiple Gun Motor Carriage (quad 50) based on a half-track which it was paired with organizationally

  3. The structure of Duster units from the squad to battalion-level in the early/mid-1950s

  4. The structure of Duster units from the battery to battalion-level as they were employed during the Vietnam War
