Christie-derived suspension on Polish 10TP tank: roadwheel (1), spring (2) and arm (3) T3E2 tank with Christie suspension crossing an obstacle during tests in 1936. The Christie suspension is a suspension system developed by American engineer J. Walter Christie for his tank designs.
The Christie M1931 originated as the M1928, which used Christie's suspension, and had the ability to run on its tracks or the wheels.The M1928 was demonstrated unofficially to the US Army by traversing a route at an average speed of 45 km/h (28 mph); by contrast the US Army's T1E1 tanks – expected to replace their WWI-era M1917 light tanks – averaged 16 km/h (9.9 mph) over the same route.
John Walter Christie (May 6, 1865 – January 11, 1944) was an American engineer and inventor.

The Christie's suspension was tested a long time ago by the Americans and unconditionally rejected. On our tanks, as a result of the poor steel on the springs, it very quickly fatigues and as a result clearance is noticeably reduced. The deficiencies in our tracks from their viewpoint result from the lightness of their construction.
