Historical Information

The LVT-4, also known as the "Water Buffalo," was developed in the United States during the intense preparations for amphibious landings in Europe and the Pacific. The vehicle enabled rapid transport of soldiers, supplies, and light equipment directly from ships to the shore. It was widely used during Allied operations in Western Europe (ETO – European Theatre of Operations), including the famous Operation Overlord—the Normandy landings in 1944. The LVT-4 served from 1943 until the end of the war in 1945 in the armies of the USA, Great Britain, and other Allies.
