These units were built by Glover Webb back in the 90's.
I’m pretty sure they were procured by the Army so that the Wheel barrow and associated equipment could be helicopter transportable but still be mobile once deployed.

Hi all,
I used to work for Glover Webb during the 90’s up until they were taken over by GKN/Alvis so maybe able to help you with any questions you have on their vehicles from this period.
Cheers,
Ian

I know it’s an old thread, but if anyone is still interested, I think that this vehicle was a prototype made by Glover Webb just before they were closed down.
It was based on the existing Tactica vehicle, but I believe that this one was produced with Rockwell independent suspension rather than the leaf spring arrangement fitted to the standard product.
A quick look underneath should establish that.
Alvis did offer this vehicle, but I’m not sure if the independent suspension was ever introduced into production vehicles. I don't know if BAE have continued the range
