It was essential for transporting RAF ground crew who ensured aircraft were ready for action, and was regarded as crucial as the planes they serviced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe foldable windscreen, while known for exposing crews to harsh weather, was a notable aspect of this reliable vehicle. RAF ground crews depended on these trucks for daily tasks, facilitating the movement of personnel and equipment across extensive airfield areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the war, these trucks were a common sight at RAF bases both in Britain and abroad. The RAF ground crew understood that their Bedford trucks were vital in maintaining operations. Without dependable transport for personnel and supplies across large airfields, air missions would have faced significant challenges. The Bedford MWD, though not a combat vehicle, was a key component in the chain that kept the RAF operational through the war's darkest times and on to victory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"heading--3\"\u003eTech Specs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid grid--2-col grid--1-col@medium\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item\"\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"spec grid grid--2-col grid--2-col@small grid--row-gap-10\"\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item\"\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"spec grid grid--2-col grid--2-col@small grid--row-gap-10\"\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item\"\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"spec grid grid--2-col grid--2-col@small grid--row-gap-10\"\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item\"\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"spec grid grid--2-col grid--2-col@small grid--row-gap-10\"\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003eItem Length - Without Packaging (cm): 8.9\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003eItem Width - Without Packaging (cm): 4.1\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003eHow many pieces will be found in the box opened by the customer? 95\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003eItem Scale: 1:48 Scale\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item\"\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"spec grid grid--2-col grid--2-col@small grid--row-gap-10\"\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003eContents (what's in the box) sets:\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd class=\"grid__item spec__description\"\u003ePlastic model kit, instruction sheet, paint layout sheet and decals.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003eFinish: Plastic\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003eNumber of Scheme options: 2\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003eSkill Level: 2\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item\"\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"spec grid grid--2-col grid--2-col@small grid--row-gap-10\"\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003eFlying Hours: 1\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Airfix","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43110035292226,"sku":"A03313A","price":50.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0901\/5642\/files\/AirfixA03313A.jpg?v=1774231510","url":"https:\/\/www.pollystoys.co.nz\/products\/airfix-1-48-wwii-15-cwt-4x2-g-s-truck","provider":"Polly's Toys \u0026 Gifts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
