Humber MK II/IV Armoured Car

The British and Commonwealth forces fielded an extensive reconnaissance arm, moving ahead of the main armoured forces in search of enemy troop positions and dispositions. The Humber Armoured Car was one such vehicle used for this task and more than capable of holding its own against other light vehicles and infantry. From the parched deserts of Africa to the roads and fields of Europe, the Humber Armoured Car was at the spearhead of the Allied advance.

Replacing the ageing Humber Light Reconnaissance Car, the newly designed Humber Armoured Car quickly became a mainstay of Commonwealth forces, particularly in the desert warfare of North Africa. Initially armed with a 15mm and 7.92mm BESA machine gun, the later Mk IV replaced the 15mm gun with a US-supplied 37mm M5 or M6 anti-tank gun. Such was the Humber’s success it was used throughout the war, including in the North West Europe and Burma campaigns.
