Originally not built for the military, but forces of various countries got interest in this product.
It's indeed from Europe.

This might be the swiss Meili Flextrac, directly related to the (in Germany) better known Kässbohrer Flexmobil.

And apparently sold to Clark Equipment in the US and JCB in the UK. Cool thing! Company still exists and shows these images as well.

A 1959 source calls it Meili METRAC.

I recall that I took this info from Meili's website, so, I still go for Flextrac.

I know, but I wanted to start a discussion, if Metrac is totally incorrect or if there where different models.
