After World War II, the Danish Army received at least 14 "Katies" (Austin K2/Y) from the British Forces in Germany. This is going to be a model of one of those.
Basically they are more or less similar to the British as only the license plates were changed, but as it is taken from a RAF Emergency Kit, the colour of the truck will be army green instead of the tan that RAF used and the uniform will go from the RAF Blue to a more khaki toned reflecting the Danish M/44 uniforms used from around 1945-1950; These uniforms were based on the British M/1937 uniforms and were originally a grey-green-brown colour in 1944 to a yellow-brown from 1945. The uniform was in use up to 1958/59 where it was changed to M/58.
The kit was slowly started in 2020 or so (or maybe even already in 201x), but then put on the shelf for quite some time.
