History:

The M26 Dragon Wagon was a massive armoured recovery vehicle built by Pacific Car and Foundry during World War II. With its 40-ton trailer and armoured cab, it was specifically designed to haul disabled tanks such as the Sherman from front-line battlefields. The Dragon Wagon served in both the European and Pacific theatres, proving invaluable in maintaining the mobility and effectiveness of Allied armoured forces. Its combination of power, protection, and versatility made it one of the most important recovery vehicles of the war.
