Foto-galerija a Univerzalni nosač aviona T-16, The Universal Carrier, also known as the Bren Gun Carrier from the light machine gun armament, is a common name describing a family of light armoured tracked vehicles built by Vickers-Armstrong and other companies. The first carriers – the Bren Carrier and the Scout Carrier with specific roles – entered service before the war, but a single improved design that could replace these, the Universal, was introduced in 1940. The vehicle was used widely by British Commonwealth forces during the Second World War. Universal Carriers were usually used for transporting personnel and equipment, mostly support weapons, or as machine gun platforms. With some 113,000 built by 1960 in the United Kingdom and abroad, it is the most produced armoured fighting vehicle in history
Varijanta T-16: The Carrier, Universal, T16, Mark I. was a significantly improved vehicle based upon those built by Ford of Canada, manufactured under Lend Lease by Ford in the United States from March 1943 to 1945. It was longer than the Universal with an extra road wheel on the rear bogie, the engine was a Ford Mercury delivering the same power. Instead of the steering wheel controlling the combination brake/warp mechanism, the T-16 had track-brake steering operated by levers (two for each side). During the war, it was chiefly used by Canadian forces as an artillery tractor. After the war, was used by Argentine, Swiss (300) and Netherlands forces.

Čaj Univerzalni nosač aviona T-16 je svetlo oklopno vozilo koje je razvio Ford u Sjedinjenim Američkim Državama kao poboljšana verzija britanskog Universal Carrier. To je uglavnom korišćen od strane kanadskih snaga tokom Drugog svetskog rata kao artiljerijski traktor, ali je takođe služio kao transporter, mitraljez platforma, ili nosač minobacača. T-16 je imao posadu od tri i mogao je da nosi do pet putnika. Pokreće ga Ford V8 motor koji mu je dao maksimalnu brzinu od 51 km / h i operativni domet od 256 km.
Čaj SU-16 imao je prednji laki mitraljez Bren ili protivtenkovsku pušku Bois, a takođe je mogao montirati mitraljez Vickers, mitraljez M2 Brauning ili minobacač od 2 inča ili 3 inča. T-KSNUMKS je imao pravougaoni zadnji deo koji je obezbedio više prostora za posadu i teret od prethodnih modela Universal Carriers. T-16 je imao tanak oklop od 7 do 12 mm koji je mogao da ga zaštiti od vatre i šrapnela. T-16 je proizveden od marta 1943. do 1945. godine, a proizvedeno je oko 13.000 jedinica. T-KSNUMKS je bio svestran i pouzdan vozilo koje je odigralo važnu ulogu u podršci savezničkih trupa tokom rata.
