Default CDSW v Quad Ant

It seems that the WD trialled a MCC CDSW against the new style Quad Ant with all-steel body (the new body was to allow decontamination). The MCC towed a s 25-pdr and carried the trailer load on board, whilst the Quad Ant towed a trailer and gun. In the event it was clear that the 4x4 FAT had the advantage.

I have to say that I have never seen any reference to any other 6x4 carrying the 25-pdr en portee, and clearly it never went any further.
