SD:HT M5A1

 is a French Transport unit.

Overview
The manufacturers of the M2 and M3 half-track could not keep up with demand so  International Harvester produced the M5 a similar vehicle to the M3 Half-tracks. Most of these vehicles were lend leased to Allied Nations for their mechanized Infantry formations since M5 became limited standard for the US Military. M5A1 version had M49 machine gun mount.

The Rifle Platoon Headquarter half-track was equipped with a M2 Machine Gun along with the Voltigeurs-Mitr.'s half track like their American counterparts.
