Ford has created a military pick-up truck and is bidding for a contract to supply 9,000 vehicles to the British Army over the next five to seven years. The vehicle has a three-litre diesel engine, can carry a load of two tonnes and tow up to four tonnes. Ford and other car manufacturers see the pivot to defence as a chance for growth at a time when the European car industry is struggling.
