Więcej informacji:

The FV1611A Humber Pig Mk.2 is an armoured vehicle that was used by the British Army and the Royal Ulster Constabulary (RUC) for riot control and internal security duties in Northern Ireland from the 1960s to the 1980s. It is based on the Humber 1 ton truck chassis, and has a Rolls-Royce B60 petrol engine that can reach a maximum speed of 40 mph. The vehicle can carry a crew of two and up to six passengers, and is equipped with a machine gun mounted on a ring above the driver’s hatch.
The FV1611A Humber Pig Mk.2 has additional armour plates and bulletproof glass compared to the earlier FV1611 model, and also features side storage boxes to prevent explosives from being placed underneath. The FV1611A Humber Pig Mk.2 was involved in many notable events during the Troubles, such as Bloody Sunday in 1972, when it served with the 1st Battalion Parachute Regiment in Derry. The vehicle was eventually replaced by more modern armoured personnel carriers, such as the Saxon and the Snatch Land Rover, and was retired from service in the early 1990s.
