Humber Mk. IV Armoured Car (Early/Late)

Humber Mk. IV Armoured Car (Early/Late)

Originally derived from the original Guy Armoured Car design the Rootes Group undertook the work as Guy could not continue production given their other commitments. Humber made a number of changes to suit their production and the resultant Mk.I, armed with both a 15mm & 7.92mm Besa, was externally very similar to the Guy. In total over 5000, in four Marks, were built between 1940 and 1945. This model depicts the Mk.IV production types, both early and late, which again had changes made to the turret hatches. Early and late versions have different hatches and two turrets are supplied in the kit. The main armament was also changed from the 15mm Besa, fitted to all other marks, to the American M6 37mm gun as fitted to the Staghound and Greyhound armoured cars. These types saw service with both British and Commonwealth units in Italy, NW Europe and Burma.
