Mini Armored Troop Carrier info??
Posted by Mark Meuleman on Thursday, July 6, 2006 10:45 AM
Hi all,
Does someone have some more pictures, drawings or other reference or relevant info on the MATC (Mini Armored Troop Carrier)? It was used during the Vietnam war.



Thanks very much in advance,

kind regards
Mark

Try Taubman Plans Service, part of Loyalhanna Dockyard.

thanks for your reaction, I did contact them and although they didn't have any plans of it, they'll see if they can find anything so thanks for the tip!

Look on page 373 of Norman Freidman's "U.S. Small Combatants" for line drawings of the mini-ATC. 

Note that there is a picture on the bottom of page 374 that is captioned as a mini-ATC, however it is actually a Medium Seal Support Craft (MSSC).  They look alike at first glance but there are major differences.

You can get a copy of the book through your local library's Inter-Library Loan program if you don't want to purchase one.

Hope this helps,

Matt
