Thanks for sharing PO1 Tony Holland what seems to be a Bren Gun Carrier otherwise known by the sterile " Universal Carrier [which] can be traced to the Ford T-powered Carden-Loyd machines developed in Great Britain in the mid-1920s, specifically the Mark VI model of 1927. When Carden-Loyd merged with Vickers-Armstrongs in 1928 the small machine-gun carrier—cramped, lightly protected, unreliable but cheap to produce—became a major component of the British Army."

PO1 Tony Holland That is awesome. A little micro machine troop carrier. Funny thing is that I have seen pictures of new drones being tested, and one of them is very similar in size with an intended use of delivering supplies and taking out wounded soldiers.
