Overview

By David Doyle
While battlefield recovery is most often done through the use of
armored recovery vehicles, such as the M88, retrieval under less
hazardous circumstances is often done by wheeled vehicles, the
very same vehicles that are used to transport tanks to the front.

For the past several decades, the US Army has relied on two
vehicles produced by Oshkosh Trucks (now Oshkosh Corporation) for

this duty.

These vehicles, the M911 and the M1070, are both massive trucks,
as you would expect for vehicles tasked with winching and hauling

tanks and other armored vehicles and heavy equipment at highway
speeds. On these pages we will explore the characteristics and
use of these vehicles, but the photos on these pages do not fully

show the size and robust construction of this equipment.

Illustrated with over 220 B/W and color photos and data tables.
