M18 Hellcat equipment records. Variants, orders and quantities are shown as reported in each inventory source; coverage is incomplete.
VenezuelaArmy exact named M18 Hellcat equipment holdings under ANTI-TANK/ANTI-INFRASTRUCTURE, SP 76mm. Active, operational-reserve and training units excluding equipment in store; November 2025 IISS assessment. This is the named service only, not a national or parent-force total, factory production, ordered future units or combat-readiness measure. Weapons per vessel, crews, payloads and capacity counts are excluded. The PDF explicitly classifies the Venezuelan seventy-five M18 Hellcat as self-propelled 76mm systems, matching the own Gun Motor Carriage. The Korean towed AT-gun component is excluded. No former US service quantity is inherited.
