Manufacturer description

The Canadian Military Pattern (CMP) truck was made in Canada during WWII in large numbers to British Army specifications for use by British Commonwealth allies. They were also sent as part of the Canadian Lease-Lend arrangement with Britain for service in the Soviet Union after the Nazi invasion of Russia. This replica was used by the 1st Canadian Infantry Division during the Italian Campaign in 1944. Decorated in black and a dark sandy drab camouflage scheme, the model features a canvas back with replica rope ties along the sides. Artwork includes the RAF roundel with yellow outer circle on the cab roof, authentic military numbering and lettering and the Canadian Maple leaf in red out of yellow on the cab and rear of the vehicle. Dark brown chassis, black radiator grille and a white rear axle transmission cover complete the high level of detail.
