They definitely are tracks.

Is it not tracks without the rubber blocks and cleets?

DeRuyter26 Nov 2024 10:41 a.m. PST

Correct -track links or blocks.

Track grousers for attaching to tracks to improve traction in poor conditions.

For you experts, why didn't they up gun the Stuart to, at least, to a 57mm when they created the M-5?

I expect it was space in the turret for the larger weapon and bigger ammo.
