History:
Perhaps the most iconic military vehicle of all time is the Jeep, officially known in US military parlance as “Truck, 1/4-Ton, 4x4”. With production of 640,000 of these little utility vehicles from 1941-45, it served within the army ranks of Allied countries such as the USA, Britain, France and even the Soviet Union. Powered by a 60hp 4-cylinder engine, the 1/4-Ton Truck was a mere 3.33m long, yet it was remarkably agile over rough terrain. Now, for the first time, Dragon has produced a remarkable 1/72 scale rendition of this famous 4x4 vehicle, and it has just been added to the Dragon Armor collection.
