Interesting info
Just chanced across some HAR-01 relevant data while indexing paperwork (I'm way behind - some of these documents date back to copying I did 11 years ago!)
At an MGO conference on 4 July 1944, it was decided that the total number of sets for Canadian radar units would be limited to 54 sets - 49 that were already in Australia, and a further 5 then in transit, complete with trucks. No further trucks for radar units would be required from Canada.
If such was the actual case, it would mean a total of 108 FWD HAR-01 arrived in Australia - 54 tractors for the A trailers and 54 for the B trailers. I've only managed to locate a total of 58 thus far, so there may be another 50 FWD HAR-01 lurking somewhere within the pages of AWM126.
