Bring troops to the front or tow artillery pieces into line with our latest resin and metal addition to the Bolt Action range – the Lend Lease Soviet M3 White Scout Car.
The M3 was too large and heavy to be considered a proper scout car, but its transport capacity (eight men and a driver) made it suitable for a number of tasks including that of armored transport and reconnaissance vehicle. The same basic design was used to develop the M3 half-track. Although the White Scout Car carried an HMG, it was often fitted with a further two MMGs along the sides. The M3 Scout Car was used by the Americans, British and Russians.
