Compared to the LVT-1, this new model was a real step forward. It was designed to have better seaworthiness and, at the same time, better terrain characteristics thanks to two features. These were the much improved M3A1 powertrain, relocated to the back of the hull, and bolted-on aluminium track grousers (track cleats), designed to improve maintenance in the field. Indeed, sea water corrosion and the crossing of edgy reefs, quickly worn out these pieces. The main central compartment was left open and could carry 24 infantrymen and their equipment (5,950 lbs cargo capacity).
