Default Ford US trucks for RAF, Egypt
Any ideas please what sort of US Fords would have been supplied to the RAF via Ford, Alexandria? 339 non-specialist units were ordered by December 1940 and then 189 3-ton tenders subsequently, by summer 1941. The Admiralty ordered 50 3-ton tippers and 50 3-ton chassis-cabs at much the same time. I have no knoweldge at all of RAF and RN trucks!
