The M18 was a completely different design from the M10 and M36. More modern is hard to say. It entered service two years after the M10 did. The M36 was based on the M10.

You are correct.
The USMC never used Tank Destroyers.
They did however borrow some 90mm AT guns (about one battery) from the US Army during Korea.
