In the aftermath of Pearl Harbor, the overseas industry mobilized all its forces to devote itself solely to war production. Chrysler, one of the three major automobile manufacturers, then resolutely committed itself to numerous weapons programs: armored vehicles, munitions, artillery pieces, and aircraft engines came out of the group's factories in large numbers.
But it was especially in the range of light tactical vehicles that Chrysler, through its subsidiary Dodge and with its 750 kg 4x4 pickup truck, demonstrated all its know-how. Called Weapons Carrier, the vehicle benefited from the experience acquired since 1939 with pickup trucks that were regularly improved in terms of mechanics and performance as well as general silhouette.
The Weapons Carrier came in multiple versions - personnel transport, medical, radio, command vehicle - and was delivered widely to the US Army, but also to the Allies, British, Soviet or Free French. Robust and reliable, Dodge vans continued to serve well after the conflict, in many Western armies as well as in the civilian sector where, after their reform, they pursued a new and long career.
