Trumpeter 1/35 M1083 FMTV Standard Cargo Truck (LW)
Pre-owned plastic model kit.
The M1083 FMTV (Family of Medium Tactical Vehicle) is a modern American military truck. The first cars of this type entered service in 1999 and are still in service. The vehicle is powered by a single diesel engine Caterpillar 3115 ATAAC with a capacity of 6.6 liters and 290 HP. The car is 6.93 meters long and 2.4 meters wide. The top speed is 89-90 km / h.
The genesis of the M1083 car, like virtually all Medium Tactical Vehicle family cars, dates back to the 1980s, when the American armed forces sought to acquire a completely new type of trucks, which were to be characterized primarily by high durability, reliability and the lowest costs. unit and operation. Finally, the contract was won in 1991 by Stewart and Stevenson Company (part of the Oshkosh Corporation since 2012). The manufacturer decided to base the new vehicle on the proven Steyr 12M18 truck (similar to the M1078 truck), and strengthened the entire structure, lengthened it, added one more axle, used a new engine with a significantly higher maximum power (290 HP compared to 177 HP) and introduced others, minor modernizations. It is worth adding that the M1083 vehicle is the basis for the M142 HIMARS self-propelled missile system.
