Armament varied, the most common fit being one .50 calibre M2HB and one 7.62 mm M60 machine gun. The USAF Security Police at Clark Air Base in the Philippines operated the vehicles until the autumn of 1988, when they were replaced by HMMWVs.
The Trumpeter kit in 1/72 scale contains, according to the manufacturer, over 80 parts on 2 sprues, the hull and rubber tyres. The finished model is about 73 mm long and 30 mm wide.
With its open fighting compartment, the vehicle suits a collection of American military vehicles as well as an air base scene. Paints and glues needed for assembly are not included.
