The M10 Booker was unveiled by the U.S. Army in June after more than $1 billion was spent to build this new military combat vehicle. The Booker is armed with a powerful 105mm cannon and a highly accurate targeting system. This lightweight vehicle can easily move around the battlefield, giving ground troops new capabilities.

WSJ explains how the M10 Booker differs from tanks like the M1 Abrams and why this vehicle is filling a gap for the infantry forces.
