The BARC was one of a series of amphibious cargo vehicles developed by the U.S. Army during the Korean War to replace the DUKWs left over from the Second World War. The DUKW had given yeoman service in both wars, but the Army saw that larger and more modern vehicles would be able to better perform the DUKW’s tasks in the Cold War. It therefore developed a range of new designs during the 1950s, each with far greater cargo capacity than the 2.5 ton DUKW: the 5 ton LARC V (Lighter, Amphibious Resupply, Cargo, 5 ton), the 15 ton LARC XV, and the 60 ton BARC.
