Mobility Troop operates using a variety of vehicles, of which the SAS 'Pink Panther' or 'Pinkie' is best known. The Regiment decided to paint their vehicles pink when an old aircraft, shot down during World War II, was found in the middle of the desert - the sand had burnished it pink. Other vehicles used by Mobility Troop include KTM 350 and Honda 250 motorbikes; the Honda is preferred as it is very quiet. Courses for member of Mobility Troop cover several weeks with the REME learning basic mechanical fault finding and training in cross-country conditions. |
