Miniart British Scout Car Dingo MK. 1B 1/35 Scale 35067

Description

The Daimler Dingo was a British armored car from the Second World War. The first prototypes were built in 1938, and serial production continued in 1939-1945. In total, about 6,600 copies of this vehicle were built. The Daimler Dingo was powered by an engine Daimler with 50 HP. The basic version of the vehicle was armed with a single 7.7 mm Bren.

The Daimler Dingo was created in response to the British Army’s demand for a new light reconnaissance vehicle from the late 1930s. When designing the new vehicle, emphasis was placed on high mobility, low production costs and high top speed, at the expense of the main armament and armor. Three main development versions of the Daimler Dingo were produced in the course of production. The first – marked as Mk. And – it was, of course, the first production run. The next version was the Mk. II, in which the steering of all wheels was abandoned. The last version, the Mk. III, did not have an armored roof, and the crew compartment was covered with a tarpaulin. Regardless of the version, the Daimler Dingo turned out to be a very successful and technically efficient vehicle. It made its debut in combat in the course of the campaign in France in 1940, and later were used in North Africa (1941-1943) and in battles in Europe – in Italy, France and western Germany. They were also used by the Polish Armed Forces in the West (PES).
