Lynn,
It’s certainly helps. I can place the C191QRF and C19QHF chassis – see above.
But where does your reference to C291Q
H come from? Or were you referring to the C291Q
R chassis, which was the third design for the wheeled carrier.
If you have a reference C291Q
H does it support - or reject - the evidence presented here that the C291QH was intended to be used as the chassis for an armoured vehicle?
Thanks,
Hanno
