Description:
240-horsepower cargo truck
Features: The M-939A2 tactical truck is a
five-ton capacity, six-wheel drive cargo truck used for
transportation of all types of supplies. The M-939 series
comes in six body styles: cargo, dump, wrecker, van and long
wheel base cargo. Its central tire inflation system enables
the crew to increase or decrease the air pressure in the
tires to improve mobility on or off roads. It can tow 21,000
pounds.
Background: The M-939A2 is a fitting
replacement for the famed Army "deuce-and-a-half"
truck. The Army received the M-939A2 in 1989.
