Only pics I could find are these, they show the Linn C5 was a sort of wheel-cum-track vehicle, rather than a half track:




The picture source mentions the [US] Army evaluated the C5 as a 155mm howitzer tractor.

Amazing vehicle, I can't figure out how one survived in Australia?!? Interestingly, the same design is used today for vehicles used in soil analysis: big 4x4 chassis with crawler tractor tracks slung underneath.
