considering its specially meant for the army or special forces,its not very surprising that it went unnoticed as these cars are not seen in public that often,and their tests might be in harsh regions(not sure)

My bet on tushky too . Those ARE the Tata trademark taillamps, starting from the Sumo SE's, Spacios, M, L and HCV's.

Perhaps it is some modified version of a Mitsubishi mini-truck like the Delica ?
To be manufactured under licence by HM ?

The truck in military fatigues is an AL, and it sported a banner saying AL - on Test. I was not able to shoot the front (the truck pulled out as I went up to it), else we wouldnt have these doubts

Tushky, that will be classified as a small truck / mini truck. Not a pick-up. A TL or a 207 is a pick-up.
