DAC 8.120 FAEG/130 FAEG/140 FAE/11.154 FAEG

     Notes: These are modern cabover all-terrain medium trucks for transport of cargo over rough terrain.  The 8.120 has a larger payload, but a less-powerful ROMAN SA 798-05 120-horsepower engine.  The 8.130 is slightly smaller and has a somewhat reduced payload, but a more powerful Type 92L4 DTI 130-horsepower Euro2-compliant engine.  The 8.140 FAE has an even more powerful Steyr WD 812.02 140-horsepower engine, but is even smaller in dimensions.  The 11.154 FAEG is the most powerful of the four listed here (there is an even larger version, the 15.215 DFAEG, in Romanian Heavy Unarmored Vehicles); however, it is even smaller in size than the other three, even though it is heavier.  It uses a Type 798-05 turbodiesel developing 154 horsepower. All have a hatch over the commander’s position which may or may not have a light weapon mount.  The front windshield is large and affords excellent visibility.  The floor of the cargo area is made from wood planks.  The cab is heated. These four trucks share many automotive and structural members, along with the 15.215 DFAEG in Romanian Heavy Unarmored Vehicles.

Steagul Rosu SR-101

     Notes: This predecessor of the SR-132 is basically a Romanian copy of the Russian Zil-150 with a slightly different cab, and slightly different specifications. The SR-101 can be distinguished from the Zil-150 by the differently shaped cab roof; the SR-101 has a fixed windshield, a flat cab ceiling, and a differently shaped cab doors. The cab itself is all-metal (though very early prototypes had a wooden cab). The SR-101 is powered by an SR-101 gasoline engine developing 90 horsepower, coupled with a manual transmission. The layout is conventional, with the engine under a hood up front, the cab behind that, and a rear cargo area, which can be covered by a canvas tilt over wooden and steel bows. The standard SR-101 is a 4x2 drive vehicle, but there is a rare 4x4 version called the SR-104. Both can haul 4 tons on roads.

     One variant exists, a dump truck.

Steagul Rosu SR-131 Carpati

     Notes: The SR-131 is a medium 4x4 truck used by Romania and Czechoslovakia.  It is a further development of the SR-101 above. The layout is conventional, with the engine at the front, fully enclosed cab behind that, and cargo area at the rear.  The cargo area has drop wooden sides and a drop metal tailgate. The engine is a modification of the Ford Block Y engine; the resulting SR-211 V-8 develops 140 horsepower, a marked increase over the engine of the SR-101. The transmission is sort of a limiting factor, having only four forward speeds. The SR-131 is a 4x2 vehicle with limited off-road mobility, but there is a 4x4 version, the SR-132.

     The SR-113 Bucegi is a larger version of the Carpati, with a reinforced suspension to enable it to haul more cargo.  The engine is the same, but the Bucegi has a 5-speed transmission. The Bucegi is also used by Romania and Czechoslovakia. Like the SR-131, the SR-113 is a 4x2 vehicle, but there is a 4x4 version, the SR-114.

     Variants of these vehicles include a carrier for the BM-21 multiple rocket launcher, a dump truck, an ambulance, a tractor truck (which may pull a trailer that weighs 18 tons), and a tanker.
