Vehicles like this one filled important transport roles at all levels of a formation, from il plotone armi pesanti to higher echelon Headquarters. Light trucks were fast e maneuverable enough to keep up con troops advancing across difficult terrain, they had more load capacity than a Jeep e their low silhouette made them much less conspicuous than a full-sized truck. Il trasporto armi was popularly known as the Beep, probably because it appeared like a big o beefed-up Jeep.
