The M24 Chaffee tank was distributed to the US Army units starting in 1944 to have, on the battlefield, a light tank capable of replacing the dated M3/M5 Stuart. The configuration of the M-24 was in fact very different from its predecessor and its design proved to be very valid so much so that it can be considered one of the best light tanks ever built. Agile, robust and reliable, it was, for a "Light Tank", well armed, being able to count on a 75 mm M6 cannon with 48 rounds available. The tank's armament was completed with two 12.7 mm Browning machine guns. After the Second World War, where it demonstrated its construction characteristics, it participated in the Korean War used in support operations for the M4 Sherman tanks and the heavier M26 Pershing. It was also effectively used in close infantry support activities and to carry out advanced reconnaissance tasks.

The revolutionary design of the F4U Corsair was created in 1938 in response to a request from the United States Navy to design a high-speed fighter stationed aboard aircraft carriers. Chance Vought took up the challenge, aiming to fit the most powerful of the engines available (i.e. the Pratt-Whitney Double Wasp engine) into the smallest possible airframe. The key was placing the awkward landing gear in the inverted, crooked wings that became the aircraft's hallmark. Flight of the prototype took place on May 29, 1940, and the US Navy received its first serial Corsair on July 31, 1942. However, tests by the US Navy on aircraft carriers revealed some flaws in the design, which meant that the first production run of the aircraft went to Marine Corps squadrons and operated from land bases. The first unit received by the F-4 was VMF-124 at Gudalcanal. It soon turned out that the new machine definitely surpasses all enemy machines and, in many respects, even the F-6 Hellcat. At the same time, however, it was very difficult to fly and required great attention when landing. Interestingly, only up to 20% of Corsair missions took off from the decks of aircraft carriers, and for almost the entire war they remained primarily a Marine Corps machine. After the end of World War II, the F-4 Corsair remained on the line and took part in the Korean War (1950-1953). Technical data (F4U-4 version): Maximum speed: 731 km/h, rate of climb: 19.7 m/s, maximum ceiling 12649 m, maximum range: 1115 km, armament: fixed - 6 machine guns M2, caliber 12, 7 mm and 4 20 mm Browning cannons, sling - up to 1800 kg of bombs.
