The DUKW, also known as the "Duck," was an amphibious transport vehicle primarily used by the U.S. Army during World War II. Production began in 1942. It was based on the design of a GMC truck and featured an additional drive that allowed it to move both on land and in water. It had a distinctive flat bow that facilitated swimming. The DUKW was frequently used in sea landings, land operations, and transport in flooded areas.
