		Scorpion remains are often found in coal deposits that are believed to be of the Carboniferous Period, and no essential structural difference has been discovered between these fossils and existing forms—suggesting that the group has existed without material structural modification for millions of years.
		These scorpions were believed to be preceded by others, now occurring in marine Silurian deposits, which apparently lived in the sea and exhibit some anatomical differences marking them off as a group distinct from their Carboniferous and recent descendants and attesting affinity with the still earlier marine Arachnida referred to the group Gigantostraca.

		Arthur, It didn't offer any protection for the crew at all, except for the driver, everybody else was exposed, which was one of it's problems.
		Also, the M56 was a 90mm, and it was too powerful for the chassis, which was just one of the reasons that it also failed.

	Foot-Slogging American Air Assault Forces
		Thanks to super-grunt, Reed Dyer who alerted us to Hunnicutt's book, Bradley: A History of American Fighting and Support Vehicles a dark secret from the U.S. Army's past has been revealed, a problem that persists to this day.
		The M56 Scorpion (see above with a CH-54 Skycrane heavy lift helicopter) was an exposed 90mm gun and the M50 Ontos was a 6 x 106mm recoilless rifles carrier, both assault gun platforms were helicopter transportable for fire support, but how would the infantry move?
		Hunnicutt reveals the Ontos came from the 1954 T55 6-man and T56 10-man infantry carriers that bear an eerie resemblance to today's German Wiesel 1 and Wiesel 2 helicopter-transportable TAFVs except being gas-powered.
