Military Vehicles Archive Magazine

27 January 2023

Forming a four-part work that we hope will become an indispensable compendium of British Army soft-skin logistic vehicles, Kelsey’s revamped Military Vehicles Archive will eventually cover more than 110 manufacturers, with listings of more than 600 different vehicles. The first issue includes potted histories of some 30 manufacturers, ranging from AEC to F.L. Douglas (Equipment), and includes, for example, such well-known manufacturers as Albion, Austin, Bedford, Commer, Crossley, Diamond T and Dodge, as well as including manufacturers with which you are perhaps less familiar. There is a comprehensive tabulated listing of the vehicles produced by each of the manufacturers, which includes the model identifier and typical nomenclature, and gives basic technical details. And finally, there are a dozen or so more-detailed ‘featured vehicles’ scattered through the text.
