RAF Helicopter Support Vehicle
RAF Defender 110 helicopter servicing vehicle with roof platform, work lights, yellow side band and heavy front winch fittings.
History
The model follows Dick Ward’s photograph at RAF Wattisham in 1994, as published by Joint Forces, rather than the queue’s unrelated auction thumbnail. It depicts the hard-top helicopter servicing conversion that followed the Series III version after the Gulf War. Opposite-side and rear detailing are conservative interpretations; the obscured registration is not invented. Production quantity is unknown. Handling is game tuning.
