1941-1942 Fordson WOT8 4X4 truck The WOT8 was the only one in England produced with a payload of 30 cwt (1.5 tons), and four-wheel drive. It was the forerunner of the WOT6 (one can be also seen in this image) with a shorter wheelbase and a lower payload. In 1941 and 1942 some 2,500 copies were produced. The British military had also used the vehicle as an artillery tractor in North Africa. During the war, there were 868 units shipped to the Soviet Union. Of these, 731 reached their destination. The Red Army also used the vehicle as a launching pad of Katyusha rockets

1942-1945 Fordson WOT6 Machinery truck The WOT6 was a four-wheel drive (4x4) vehicle with a payload of 3 tons. It was the continuation of the WOT8 (one can also be seen in this image), looks largely identical but could carry twice as much cargo. It was provided with an additional reduction gear in order to improve the driving performance in the field. The WOT6 operated closer to the front line and many of the vehicles in the driver's cab had a hole in the roof for the operation of a machine gun. Between 1942 and 1945 there were almost 30,000 produced.
