A Brussels company belonging to Brossel brothers started production of trucks in the beginning of 1920s. But Belgian and German armed forces started to acquire them only since 1937. The most famous military product with the trademark of "Brossel" was heavy artillery tractor TAL (Tracteur Artillerie Lourde) 4x4 with all wheels steerable. The prototype was built in 1935, production lasted since 1937 till 1939.
"Brossel" took part in design and production of "FN-Brossel-Miesse 62C" 4x4 military truck.
From 1938 to 1940 , heavy tractors manufactured by the type Brossel TAL for the Belgian armed forces. They were used mainly as artillery tractor. A portion was completed as a tow truck. The Belgian Army also bought a number of 1938 4x4 GMC trucks. Some were bodied as GS trucks (above), but there is a picture showing a support truck of the 3rd Ardennes Rifles (Chasseur Ardennais/Ardeense Jagers). It was probably used as an ammo truck for the 47mm tank destroyers.
