Is there an NSN on them?

Here is another CL-70 Rat photograph - this one has the windscreen attached.

Ed that is an early prototype as the frame rises alongside the body tub and lacks any lifting or tie down points in the corners.

Terry, I am for my sins a member of the FB RCEME group and reached out there and got a stellar set of replies and have spoke to the manufacturer Stanley Vidmar / Tresk and am awaiting an email on price and availability.

Once again proving that Facebook is not just for finding old friends from highschool and spreading conspiracy theories.

I was going to suggest Vidmar, but have had occasion here of being corrected, so I wanted to wait.

Robin,

I have stumbled across this link:

It appears that the National Film Board produced at least 2 and possibly 4 films on the RAT with the longest run-time listed as 30 min.

I have not explored this far enough to determine how you could obtain a copy of these films.

Colin,

Absolutely brilliant, thank you. I have joined the NFB.ca site and when their confirmation email lands in I will login and try to watch some of those.

Failing that I will make alternate enquiries.

Thank you, once again.

Robin,

You are very welcome.

Colin
