The Universal Carrier, also known as the Bren Gun Carrier, was a family of light armored tracked vehicles that saw widespread use by British Commonwealth forces during World War II. Derived from the 1920s Carden-Loyd tankette, from its introduction in 1940 the carrier served in a variety of roles such as troop transport, logistics, support weapon platform and artillery tractor.

The vehicle is one of the most manufactured armored fighting vehicles in the world, with over 113,000 units produced. In addition to the Commonwealth, the UC was delivered to other allies under the "Lend Lease" agreement, and was used by China, Soviet Union, and Free French Forces.[1]


Battlefield V

The Universal Carrier is set to be featured in Battlefield V, originally confirmed in a blog post listing all vehicles available at launch.[2] It appears to be the British counterpart to Germany's Kubelwagen.

The vehicle can seat players; the driver, operating the vehicle from the hull front-right; the gunner, using the Vickers K MG from a raised ring mount behind the driver; and a passenger, sitting to the left of the driver. The machine gun can rotate 360°.
