I have Dennis Child in South Africa who recently visited France and being a solid supporter of Biglorryblog he shot this selection of French Army trucks including this 'Topless' 6x6 which solves the problem of air conditioning...
Nice Renault eight-legger wrecker though the camouflage can't hide it from BLB!
Here's another one of theose French topless models....So for a Soufflé what make of trucks are they? Military anoraks front and centre! Now click through here for one more....
And how about this one? Classic 'Club of Four' cab should be a strong clue....

From the windscreens I would say MAN. The last photo looks like a Renault.

French Army? I'd bet they were ALL made by Renault or a Renault subsidiary.

Most trucks in service at the French Army are build in France. (Renault, Berliet, Saviem, Acmat)
But the French Army does have some foreign trucks in service: Scania, SISU
The trucks pictured here are all proper French Army trucks build in France.
1. Renault TRM 1000
2. Renault Kerax
3. Renault TRM 1000
4. Renault G260 (or a G290)
