If you have some British recon in WW2 and your
fighting in Normandy and beyond you just have to have
a SOD(Sawn Off Daimler). Why, because it looks like something
from a Mad Max road movie and that’s super cool.
In an effort to keep up with fast moving columns and a lack
of small agile vehicles the British removed the turrets off
Daimler armoured cars and came up with this crazy vehicle. Often
used as a command vehicle this thing was all about speed and wind
in your hair. Basically find a panzer and then drive like hell.
Mine has a PIAT weapon(more for morale than anything else)
and some additional aerials.
Very cool. I was completely unaware of the S.O.D.!
From what I can find out it was only the Inns Of Court,11th Armoured that used it😛
Esoteric gaming with Mr. 40kterminatus! I guess if you look at it in aggregate, there were quite a few of these chopped down recon AFVs. The various Kangaroos, M8 vs M20, and so on. I’m sure there were others.
