Australian Carrier LP1
With British production of universal Carriers never meeting demand it was decided to use other production facilities particularly in Canada, which produced 33987 carriers, and in Australia for their own needs. This model is of the first type produced by the Australians, designated as LP1 (Local Pattern 1) which was powered by US supplied Ford V8's and closely resembled the British Mk.I Bren Carrier but with enough changes to make it a distinctive vehicle type. These carriers first saw action with the Australians in the Western Desert in 1940 and Greece in 1941. They were also widely used in their campaigns in the Far East against the Japanese.
