Description
The AEC armoured car, based on the AEC Matador lorry chassis, was developed initially as a private venture and shown to officials in 1941 during the Horse Guards Parade in London, where it made a favourable impression on Churchill. AEC's goal was to build an armoured car with firepower and protection comparable to those of contemporary tanks. The Mk II / Mk III took part in the fighting in Europe with British and Indian units, often together with the Staghound.
