Pioneer SV2S Recovery Vehicle
The Pioneer SV2S had a simpler redesigned extending crane that provided greater lifting height; introduced in 1938 the SV2S would remain in production throughout the war with a total of 1,975 being built by the time WWII ended.
Among the Pioneer's equipment was a pair of tracks that could be fitted over the two rear wheels, converting it temporarily into a half-track and giving greater traction on soft ground these were kept in the large storage cages under the cab doors.
