I couldnt find this so I presume its never been suggested
Ive allways thought this would be a good addition for the British Forces just for bringing ammo,health and fixing other veichles...
From RLC site:
Demountable Rack Offload and Pickup System (DROPS) vehicles form the logistic backbone of the British Army. There are two types of vehicle – the Leyland Medium Mobility Load Carrier (MMLC), and the Foden Improved Medium Mobility Load Carrier (IMMLC). Both trucks are 8x6 load carriers with a 15-tonne flatrack payload, allowing the rapid loading and unloading of flatracks or containers.


Like the real thing, 3 seats, driver, passenger and gunner at the top (without a 50.cal)

Allthought the codeing for the extending arm to drop lets say... a crate of ammo off might not be possible, it would still be cool just as a truck.. and adds to the existing British equipment list
Thoughts ?
