Bedford RL General Service Truck
Out of stockThe Bedford RL superseded the Bedford QL and was the main medium truck of the British Armed Forces from the mid 1950's until the late 1960's with a total of 74,000 being produced. The RL was powered by a 4.9 litres petrol engine. It was based on the civilian Bedford SCL 7ton truck, but equipped with all wheel drive and bigger tyres, etc. Originally rated at 3 tons, all RL GS trucks were much later re-rated at 4 tons without any mechanical modifications.
SAS Jeep (N. Africa)
The SAS should not be confused with the earlier formed LRDG who initially acted as the transport for these commandos. However following the addition of a section of Free French paratroopers in 1942, the 130 strong SAS became independent and with their 20 Bedford OY trucks and 16 Jeeps, they developed their "hit and run" tactics against German and Italian airfields and other targets in Egypt, Libya and Tunisia. At the end of 1942 the SAS gained Regimental status and was increased in strength by receiving the remains of Middle East Commando and the Greek Sacred Squadron and although they lost the Free French paras, their compliment rose to 800 men. In 1943 the 2nd. SAS Regiment arrived in Tunisia to carry out strategic raids on Sicily and the Italian coast and following D-Day they used their expertise throughout NW Europe.
As can be seen below our model accurately reflects the array of weapons carried on these vehicles and included in the kit are both single and twin Vickers K guns and an Air-Cooled .50cal Browning MG as well as additional magazines and ammunition boxes. In addition, there is a mixture of captured "Jerrycans"," Americans" and British "Flimsies".
SAS Drivers designed for this vehicle and additional stowage is available separately. See Related Products below.

Although initially dismissed by GHQ, Maj. Baghold's paper of November 1939 proposing a long range recon. force operating deep inside Libya, when it came to the attention of General Wavell, who had started planning for war in the Middle East theatre in early 1939, it was given the green light. And although LRDG operations were delayed until the 26th of December 1940, six months after Italy's invasion of Egypt, due to further GHQ reticence, the LRDG would in fact operate, behind or on the enemy's flank, for all but 15 days until 10th. April 1943. Men from British, Australian, New Zealand and other Commonwealth forces made up the ranks with the Guards and RTR along with the New Zealanders being the backbone.
These 30cwt Chevrolets were the backbone of the LRDG and saw action from 1940 until 1943 in the Western Desert. It differs not only in wheelbase and load capacity from the earlier 15cwt Pilot version but also has subtle changes in the cab design.
The model comes with a full array of weapons and stowage.
