Description
The German army in WWII used a wide variety of wheeled vehicles as part of their
overall strategy of fast mechanized warfare. Among the most widely used was the
3Ton 4x2 Cargo Truck, a truck design that was first produced in the 1930s.
Featuring a dependable 6-cylinder gasoline engine,the 3Ton 4x2 Cargo Truck could
take on a very large payload disproportionate to its size. They proved to be not
only extremely reliable, but also very versatile, and were employed in a wide
variety of roles, including fuel truck, ambulance, radio truck, as well as
general-purpose cargo truck.
