CFS Macro - Morris CS8 - North Africa.
CFS Version of a WWII ground vehicle.
The Morris CS8, was a 0.75 ton, 4x2, Light Truck, built by british Morris Car Company during the Second World War. This is the Tropical version used by British 8th Army on North Africa.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 15 cwt CS8 Morris-Commercial was first developed in 1934.
Great Britain's War Department had the need for a general purpose vehicle.
Using the specs outlined by the War Department, the Morris Car Company designed a truck using many of the components from their 1933 civilian 'C series' range.
The newly designed truck was designated CS8, (S denoting 6 cylinder and 8 denoting an approximate 8 feet wheel base) it had a short stubby appearance with a high ground clearance.
The original design CS8 evolved into three Series, the Mark I, II & III.
The early CS8 had a small windscreen and canvas doors. These were replaced by a full windscreen and metal skinned half doors in 1941.
The CS8 became the workhorse of the British Army and many fell into Axis hands at Dunkirk, Crete, Singapore and North Africa where they were equally welcomed as a fine piece of British craftmanship.
Some textures are based on pictures availables on WWII Drawings site, mastered by Vincent Bourguiñon, Rochefort (Belgium) and www.o5m6.de, "Engines of the Red Army" site.
This macro was tested only in CFS1 sceneries, but I believe that can work without problems in CFS2-3 and FS2000-2002.
All mine API macros, could be included on objects libraries with crash detection (for CFS missions), but must be distributed with the original API-MACRO copyright.
