History:
The Archer was Designed and manufactured by Vickers-Armstrongs. It was used in north-west Europe and Italy during WW2; post-war, it served with the Egyptian Army. This vehicle was unusual in that its gun faced the rear of the chassis instead of the front. 655 Units were produced between March 1943 and May 1945.
