The Churchill Kangaroo was an APC variant of the Churchill tank. For this purpose the turret was dropped and the opening closed. The Kangaroo concept proved to be very successful and was first used by the Canadians who used obsolete hulls of the then obsolete M7 Priest. It was then quickly adopted by the Brits.
Inside of the Churchill Kangaroo is room for a driver, a machine gun operator and four soldiers. The armor protection and climb ability is clearly superior to the regular M3 half-track, the overall speed is significantly lower though. There are also variants that have the additional armor. That makes the Churchill Kangaroo even more durable and gives you the opportunity to transport infantry savely even through heavy enemy fire.
There is little visual difference between the Churchill Kangaroo and the Churchill ARV. The armor recovery variant has additional tow cables and tools, this vehicle is used to support other vehicles by repairing them.
Siege tower variant exclusive to Warring States Japan.
