The Medium Tank M2 was a United States Army tank that was first produced in 1939 by the Rock Island Arsenal just prior to the commencement of the war in Europe. Production was 18 M2 tanks and 94 slightly improved M2A1 tanks for a total figure of 112. Events in Western Europe and on the Eastern Front rapidly demonstrated that the M2 was obsolete and it was never used overseas in combat; it was used for training purposes throughout the war.
