TEAM YANKEE AMERICAN MECH PLATOON (x45 FIGURES)
American mechanised infantry formed the backbone of many Cold War battlefield formations, combining mobility, firepower, and tactical flexibility. Transported into combat aboard M113 “tracks,” these infantry units could rapidly reposition, seize objectives, and support armoured elements with a wide range of weapons.
Each squad’s firepower increased significantly with the addition of the M60 machine-gun, working alongside M16 rifles and M79 grenade launchers to create a balanced and versatile force. With anti-tank capability provided by M72 LAWs, M47 Dragon missiles, and heavier 90mm weapons, mechanised platoons were equipped to respond to almost any battlefield threat.
