WThe CLB 75 Tank was a U.S.-produced, prototype armoured fighting vehicle built by C. L. Best's Traction Company of San Leandro, California. Best was a rival of the Holt Manufacturing Company in producing caterpillar tracked vehicles. Among Best's products was the CLB 75 hp (56 kW) 'Tracklayer' The tank was developed by putting an armoured hull over a CLB 75 sometime between late 1916 and early 1917.
WThe Ford 3-Ton M1918 was one of the first tank designs by the U.S. It was a small two-man, one-gun tank. It was armed with a M1919 Browning machine gun and could reach a maximum speed of 8 mph (13 km/h). The 3-Ton had a 17-US-gallon (64 l) tank that gave it a maximum range of 34 miles (55 km).
WThe M1917 was the United States' first mass-produced tank, entering production shortly before the end of World War I. It was a license-built near-copy of the French Renault FT, and was intended to arm the American Expeditionary Forces in France, but American manufacturers failed to produce any in time to take part in the War. Of the 4,440 ordered, about 950 were eventually completed. They remained in service throughout the 1920s but did not take part in any combat, and were phased out during the 1930s.
WThe Mark VIII tank also known as the Liberty or The International was a British-American tank design of the First World War intended to overcome the limitations of the earlier British designs and be a collaborative effort to equip France, the UK and the US with a single heavy tank design.
WThe Skeleton Tank also known as the Spider Tank was an experimental prototype tank built in 1918 by the Pioneer Tractor Company, Winona, Minnesota for $15,000. The Prototype was ready for trials by October 1918. Designed with several innovative features, some of which were controversial at the time, the Skeleton Tank project did not proceed beyond the single prototype tank.
WThe Steam Wheel Tank was a U.S.-produced, prototype armoured fighting vehicle built by the Holt Manufacturing Company. Developed sometime between late 1916 and early 1917, it was the third tank to be designed in the U.S. The prototype was completed in February 1918 and was evaluated between March and May 1918 at Aberdeen Proving Ground. It performed poorly and was not developed further.
