The Universal Carrier, better known as the Bren carrier, was exactly that—a versatile, tracked, and armored vehicle that fulfilled a wide array of roles across all British and Commonwealth troops in every theater of World War II.
Admired by the troops they supported, these carriers transported soldiers to the front lines, evacuated the wounded, delivered supplies and ammunition, and conducted liaison and patrol missions. With over 113,000 units manufactured in the UK and abroad, it became the most prolific armored fighting vehicle in history.
Universal Carriers rendered invaluable service to British and Allied forces throughout the war, and also saw significant use in the Soviet Army. No British Commonwealth commander would forego these reliable carriers, which provided crucial support to their steadfast infantrymen.
This plastic carrier kit offers the choice to construct either the Mk I or Mk II version, as it includes parts for both configurations!
