Title: Military Aircraft tug built by Chevrolet
Post by: Whitfield on January 03, 2010, 02:34:42 am

I've never seen one of these before  :o   

Cool rig for sure!  I'm trying to resist the precieved need to own it.

Powered by a 6.2 diesel with an automatic transmission. It is four wheel drive and puts the power the ground via a set of ZF axles with gear reduction hubs. The truck has full hydro steering and a selector lever to run two wheel front steer, oblique, or four wheel steering. It has multiple towing points and pulls very strong.

The airport really is a place to see highly unusual, yet somewhat recognizable, machinery.

Our tug was not four wheel steer grr but it had the front pintle I found it easier to push the birds because you could at least see which way it was going lol
