TATRA 111

Notes: This truck series was for some time the most powerful truck used by the Czechs. They were replaced in service by the TATRA 138, but many are still found in civilian roles, and in front-line roles in Vietnam and the Middle East. The TATRA 111NR has a winch with a capacity of 6 tons. Variants include several tractor trucks, a crane-shovel, several crane trucks, several tankers, and a dump truck.
