The M8 Greyhound was originally designed as a tank destroyer, but it's armament of a single 37mm cannon and a single Machine Gun were soon found insuitable against german armor, and the vehicle was redesignated as a recon vehicle. After production bugs had been kinked out, the vehicle was set into production by the Ford Company. 

The vehicle earned its reputation as being a ferocious and dangerous vehicle in the hands of the American operators. One unconfirmed story from the war tells of an M8 crew rushing an unaware Panther and shooting it up the ass, causing a fire in the engine and killing the tank. Against the IJA, who tended to use lighter armor, the vehicle proved excellent in jungle fighting as both an anti-infantry and anti-tank platform. The design was so decent that it survived after the Korean war.

The vehicle served as a basis of the AM8, which was a Columbian version with an M45 quad BMG turret strapped to the top of the vehicle, which is as awesome as it is derpy. It also served as the basis of the M8 Hellenic Army Armored Car and the M20 Armored car that served in the war as well.
