Who knows this vehicle?

Thereīs an extra point who knows the product name of those cool truck tyres! (I do, btw...)

Its one of three Delahaye based trucks built for servicing French Airforce Aircraft in 1912.
Working on the tyres!

This one was a radio truck, I think.

It surely looks like a Delahaye, but it isnīt.

To help massively:

it features a electic-gas hybrid drivetrain and was built
as a service truck for the french airforce in 1911.

This truck was made by Crochat. The picture was taken at the Grandes manoeuvres du Poitou.
