History

The origins of the Universal Carrier family can be traced back generally to the Carden Loyd Tankettes family, which was developed in the 1920s, and specifically the Mk VI Tankette.
In 1934, Vickers-Armstrongs produced, as a commercial venture, a light tracked vehicle that could be used either to carry a machine gun or to tow a light field gun. The VA.D50 had an armored box at the front for driver and a gunner and bench seating at the back for the gun crew.
The first WWII Online platform that is motorized with true indirect fire with ranges up to 2,500 meters. Each of these platforms has specific characteristics so learn their strengths and limitations.

The Universal Carrier was ubiquitous in all the theatres during the Second World War with British and Commonwealth armies,[10] from the war in the East to the occupation of Iceland.[11] Although the theory and policy was that the carrier was a "fire power transport" and the crew would dismount to fight, practice differed. It could carry machine guns, anti-tank rifles, mortars, infantrymen, and supplies.
