History

Blah blah, history blah

Design

The M-21 chassis is a conventional tracked design with the engine at the front and the driving position to the right. The hatch for the vehicle commander is directly behind the driver's; a pintle mount next to it can take a machine gun. There is a side-hinged door in the rear for loading and unloading, and in most models a large split-hatch round opening in the passenger compartment roof. In common with other such old designs, there are no firing ports for the troops carried.

There is a wading screen as standard, and the vehicle has a water speed of about 6 km/h when converted for swimming.
