In addition to the military training, DST has a fleet of over 1, 300 vehicles that cover over 5.5 million miles each year.

@wonderman200 They might be RAF trucks then again they might be Army, however these trucks are from the MOD Driver Training School which is based at RAF Leconfield some 10 miles away, ALL drivers and instructors wear the high vis - nothing to do with it being an active air field as all that is at Leconfield other than the DTS is 202 SQDN SAR tucked away neatly in a small corner of the airfield.

Nice little clip, ... However, it never ceases to amaze me how people come up with information yet know nothing. These are not RAF trucks, neither are they carrying supplies, or heading to Waddington, and im afraid...no meeting up with a Herc, sorry to burst your bubble. The orange hazmat sign on the rear of the last truck should not have been displayed either. I can confirm that they are from DST Leconfield, and are on an instructor training course, and are carrying a simulated load.
