- This kit includes the figures of 5 Long Range Desert Group (LRDG) soldiers, it does not include the vehicle, the pictured vehicle is a Tamiya 1/35 scale kit.
LRDG never numbered more than 350 men, all of whom were volunteers.
The LRDG was formed specifically to carry out deep penetration, covert reconnaissance patrols and intelligence missions from behind Italian lines, although they sometimes engaged in combat operations. Because the LRDG were experts in desert navigation they were sometimes assigned to guide other units, including the Special Air Service and secret agents across the desert. During the Desert Campaign between December 1940 and April 1943, the vehicles of the LRDG operated constantly behind the Axis lines, missing a total of only 15 days during the entire period
The LRDG was disbanded in August 1945.
