The group further comprises two Universal Carriers, two additional military transport trucks, and an armoured scout car. Artillery is represented by a 25-pounder field gun and its accompanying limber. Numerous miniature personnel figures in desert-issue uniforms, including khaki shorts and shirts, are positioned within and around the vehicles. The models have been finished with realistic weathering effects to simulate desert sand and dust. Visible markings include a red square with the number 54 on a Universal Carrier, the serial number 146957 on a truck tailboard, and a PASS inspection label.
