KHD S3000 WWII German Army Truck

Description

A significant part of the German Wehrmacht vehicle fleet during World War II was made up of3-tonne cargo trucks.One of the most popular was the KHD S3000 which was produced from 1940 onwards in the Klckner-Humboldt-Deutz plant in Ulm. This truck was equipped with a 4 cylinder Deutz diesel engine and had rear-wheel drive only.

KHD S3000trucks were widely used by all parts of the German army up until the end of war such as at the Soviet-German front North Africa Italy and in France. In off-road conditions the rear-wheel drive vehicles showed minimal cross-country capability so many KHD S3000 trucks were produced as Maultier half-track vehicles. In total 10684 KHD S3000 trucks were produced from 1940 to 1944.
