The Belgian Army were the largest export customer for the British CVR(T) family of light armoured vehicles. This "Model Foto Focus" takes a thorough look around these little-documented but fascinating machines. For the modeller, this is the ultimate walkaround for an accurate model. For the historian and enthusiast, it provides a detailed insight into the desin and operation of these vehicles. In Part 2 of this study, we look at the "long-hull" versions - Spartan, Samaritan, Sultan and Samson - used by Belgium. In Part 1, the offensive turreted versions of the CVR(T) family are featured, plus the anti-tank missile-armed Striker. The British and Belgian CVR(T) families had a lot in common, especially in their early days. These books will therefore, also be of great interest to British CVR(T) enthusiasts.
