Valokuvagalleria M923 Guntruck, This medium cargo truck of the 5 ton category, is representative of today’s generation of logistical vehicles of the U.S. Forces. It entered service in the early eighties. The M-923 has an extremely sturdy structure and excellent off-road features, which are necessary to secure the flow of material to the front line combat units. Based on this chassis many versions have been produced: wrecking trucks, tank trucks, mobile maintenance and communication trucks. The A-1 version is characteristic because of its large off-road tires which have earned it the nick-name “big-foot”. During its operational use, and in particular in the most recent military campaigns in which it was employed as Iraq and Afghanistan, the “Big Foot” has often been modified with the addition of “home made” protections to reduce the damages caused by the fire of light weapons. However, the personalization of the vehicles, made “on field” by the crews, were possible thanks to the excellent platform offered by-M-923 trucks.

Nniiden VW 166 Schwimmwagen on saksalainen amfibioauto, jota käytettiin toisessa maailmansodassa. Tämän kevyen maastoauton 4X4-tila on aktiivinen vain ensimmäisellä vaihteella ja peruutuksella. Sen maavara on melko korkea ja hyötyy itselukittuvista tasauspyörästöistä rullilla, tämä kone on todellinen monipuolinen. Schwimmwagenia käytettiin pääasiassa yhteys- tai tiedusteluajoneuvona ja nopeana keinona evakuoida haavoittuneet.

Un embout d’hélice relevable permet de facilement basculer en mode amphibie, la propulsion dans l’eau se faisant uniquement en marche avant. Avec plus de 15000 unités construites entre 1941 et 1944 la Schwimmwagen est surement un des véhicules amphibie les plus produits de tous les temps.
