0 andym Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 It's designed to fit on the back of a 432 or similar to form a command tent, like so: Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 stinkypete618 Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 Thanks for confirming what we had thought. Looks kinda like a 9x9 from one end, but no end panel on other end, just 2 low level flaps. Back we got to the seller then, not what we asked for, unless any body want to swap out for a 9x9?

That actually looks longer than a 9 by 9 if it had the frame it would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Davey089 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Wonder if it would fit on the back on a Bedford MW ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 stinkypete618 Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 No its a short one, shorter than a 9x9. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 David2162 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 I've just bought a load of canvas and I've got two of these Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Dougy FV432 Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Where did you cross reference the original pic part number Andy? I've checked the online CES manual, and my own paper copy. The only number I come up with for a fv432 command penthouse tent is this... The main canvas has an separate end section that goes around the rear door... Here is a pic of the actual canvas attached to a fv432... Unless it was a new batch of canvases for the fv432 and they updated the number, I do know that the army was looking for penthouses for the fv432 around about that time, as some had to be specially made for a contract.

0 34ba37 Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I think i have a frame for one of those, its big and heavy, and made of metal poles, you would need a fv432 to carry it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There should be 4 ridge poles, 9 short intermediate, and 8 support legs for a complete frame, Dougy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
