Default Peak Engineering Turret

Hello,

It is not a Cadillac Gage turret like the ones fitted to Canadian vehicles. It is a turret made by Peak Engineering, called the Lightweight Turret designed for FV432's and Ferrets.

It was developed between 1967 and 1974 when they were first installed on FV432's.

Some FV 432's fitted with this turret served at Suffield in Canada in the 1980's, and others were in Berlin.

Regards

Nick Balmer
