About the Dragon Wagon
During the Second World War, the development of heavy tanks continued at
a fevered pitch. To deploy these tanks to the front line, or retrieve
them when damaged or broken, the a large-scale transport vehicle was a
necessity. In April of 1943, the U.S. started production of "The Dragon
Wagon", one of the biggest tank transport vehicles of WWII. Constructed
around an armored cabin and a sturdy trailer, it boasted a loading
capacity of 40 tons. Also assisting in the transport of boats for river
crossing operations, the Dragon Wagon was a great advantage to the advancement of the Allied Forces.
