MAN have won a contract to supply the froces with new trucks to replace the 4/8/14 tonners currently in service lookes very similar to the ones in use by German forces one of the lads in my unit seen a couple of new DROPS (might be US built) on a flat bed being sent/to from trials. Oshkosh have also got contracts to supply both medium and large fuel tankers as well.
I'll post a pic of the new MAN on Friday after I pick up the mag the articles in

Hi Davy

I see you are into the softskins. I am trying to build 1/24 Daf Drops with King Trailer and a Bedford MK GS or other variant. Have you got any detailing or dimensions for the Bedfords that you might be able to direct me to?

As you can see I have made a start on the DROPS including buying a resin cab. For the Bedford I have a cab (a kids plastic toy in 1/24) that I want to convert.

Hope you can help.

Nige
