U.S. M150 TOW

The M150 was an American tracked anti-tank missile vehicle based on the M113 family and equipped to employ the TOW guided missile. It gave mechanized forces a mobile long-range anti-armor capability without using a conventional tank gun. The arrangement differed from later M901 Improved TOW Vehicles with their distinctive elevated launcher head. Its effectiveness depended on observation, missile guidance, suitable firing positions, and crew exposure during operation, rather than on heavy armor protection. Wire guidance required the operator to maintain the necessary aiming process during flight. That exposed the crew and vehicle to different tactical risks from a tank firing an unguided shell and moving immediately.
