M1120 HEMTT Load Handling System (LHS) 1/35 Trumpeter

The acronym HEMTT (Heavy Expanded Mobility Tactical Truck) identifies an eight-wheeled off-road-capable heavy truck. It was produced from the mid-80s for the United States Army. Thanks to its features, the HEMTT is able to guarantee a great off-road mobility and significant transportation performance. It has become the real “workhorse” of the Army, capable of carrying ammunition and equipment. The M1120 HEMTT LHS (Load Handling System) is equipped with a loading system that can be used directly from the cabin and is able to transport a lot of different types of cargo and containers. The M1120 is capable of carrying a payload of 11 tons. That makes it ideal for performing military logistic duties. It has been recently used in operative areas such as Iraq and Afghanistan.

Trumpeter often recommends using Tamiya X and XF paints – click here to purchase!
