The 240 mm Howitzer Motor Carriage T92 was self-propelled howitzer developed by the United States Of America during World War II.

The 240 mm M1 howitzer was mounted on a slightly modified Heavy Tank T26E3 chassis, later being re-designated the Heavy Tank M26 Pershing, it featured an extra bogie wheel, to bring a total of seven.

A limited production run was ordered in March 1945, and the first test model was finished in July of that year. Production of the T92 was a total of five.

A similar vehicle was also built was also built in conjunction with the T92, the 8in Gun Motor Carriage T93. The T93 mounted the longer 8in M1 gun.

Limited numbers of both 240mm HMC T92s and 8in GMC T93s were going to be used in Operation Downfall; the invasion of the Japanese mainland, but because of the Japanese surrender on the 14th August 1945, the T92s and T93s were not shipped to the Pacific Theater of Operations.
