brighouse shed Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 got passed by two defenders very similar to below on M62 yesterday except in dark blue with west yorks police crest stickers on doors no other markings, plus rear had windows in whichmust be an inch thick, so dunno which prisoners we preparing for transport.

Happyoldgit Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 An access platform? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M&S Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 “The beauty of this vehicle is that the armoured pod can be utilised on the next generation chassis cab so it has at least a minimum of ten years life expectancy.” If the Defender is still in production then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONKEYCOPPER Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 looks like handles on roof rack, maybe for SWAT style raids ? Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickdulas Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 I'm sure I saw this in one of the landie mags a few years ago, and if I remember rightly, the roof rack is an access platform for high level entry in sieges etc. May be totally wrong, wouldn't be unknown.

max-ie Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 It's a platform that fits ten or so hairy ars&*d gorilla cops with five foot bats on it. The next riots will see it in use...those handles are to tie the cops to so they can lash out with maximum force as the defender is driven up and down and over the rioters...
