Mirror Models 35164 CMP C60S HOLMES BREAKDOWN WRECKER (1/35)

The CMP C60S HOLMES BREAKDOWN WRECKER is a plastic assembly model in the renowned 1:35 scale, produced by Mirror Models. The set faithfully represents, with exceptional attention to detail, one of the iconic military trucks—the Canadian Military Pattern (CMP) truck, equipped with a specialized Holmes type crane designed for towing, repairs, and technical rescue on the battlefield. This model is an excellent example of engineering equipment used by Allied forces during World War II.

Historical background: The original CMP C60S Holmes Breakdown vehicles were widely used by Canada and British forces, appearing on the fronts in Europe, North Africa, and Asia from 1942 until the end of the war. Support vehicles such as these, equipped with Holmes lifting apparatus, were used for evacuating damaged vehicles, technical servicing of tanks or armored carriers, and rapid response to failures in battlefield conditions. This specialized equipment proved crucial, especially during the Normandy landings and the Italian offensive.
