Following a successful series of lightly armored reconnaissance and liaison vehicles, the Ferret Scout Car saw extensive use in British and Commonwealth military service from the 1950s, with later variants of the Ferret taking part in the 1990 Gulf War.
The Ferret is a vehicle type whose lineage goes back to the successful Daimler Dingo reconnaissance vehicle from the Second World War.
It was designed with stealth in mind, a light and fast armored vehicle that could locate enemy positions and report any discovered weaknesses to commanders, whose own forces would move in to exploit what they found.
With an operational weight of around 4 tons, the Ferret was fully welded and had armor that could withstand most small arms fire, but not larger calibers, as the vehicle was not intended for direct combat use against stronger enemies.
The four-wheel drive Ferret was powered by a reliable 6-cylinder Rolls-Royce engine, which gave it a top speed of approximately 72 km/h.
If the Ferret ever got into trouble, he could get to safety.
If necessary, he could also achieve this speed in reverse gear, which proved to be extremely useful when the crew found themselves in a difficult situation
