The RAAF serial indicates that it is post war.

The yellow colour indicates that its primary role is on the flight line.

Its three wheel configeration indicates it is dsigned to be used in a restricted operating space. The lack originally of any ROPS also confirms that point.

However I have never seen one before which rules out it having anything to do with C47 or P2V airplanes and its serial indicates late 40's or early 50's into service.

It could however have been designed for use on an ordinance depot.

Regards

Col
