British Wheeled Vehicle Production
The British made extensive use of wheeled vehicles during the Second World
War and while the German army as well as many other armies where still reliant
of horses for transportation, the British army was fully mechanised. The
following statistics deal only with vehicles accepted by the War Office and
Ministries such as the Ministry of Supply and Air Ministry, nor does it include
vehicles imported from overseas.
Notice the large number tank transporters produced, most likely due to
experience in the desert and the effective use of them by Germany.
*A more detailed breakdown of each time will be available in the future.
