The jeep thingy appears to me to be a rare bantam or early prototype Jeep!

Default Wireless connection

Both the jeep thing and the artillery tractor are mounted with No.11 wireless sets. Not typical of either. Testing perhaps? Oh, and the ass end of a carrier in front on the FAT. Another 11 set 'just out of view' I suspect.
