	The M8 was created from a need for a close-support light tank, early experiments with an M3 Grant Chassis were abandoned when it was found that an M116 Howitzer combined with an M3 Stuart chassis created a small, fast, and sufficiently powerful howitzer that could assault enemy positions and provide adequate support to the infantry.
