Hägglunds Moelv MB-58

Notes: This is a medium-sized trailer designed for off-road use. It uses a pendulum bogie suspension (with two axles and eight tires) which makes its off-road performance as good or better than many of the wheeled vehicles which tow it. The frame of the trailer is of steel, but the floor of the cargo box is of pine and the sides, front and rear are of plywood, all over a steel framework. The rear is a tailgate which may be dropped.

Notes: This light general-purpose trailer is not only all-terrain, it is amphibious and has skis which may be lowered for use in deep snow. As such, it is normally towed by tracked rather than wheeled vehicles. The framework of the chassis is of high-strength steel, while the sides, front, and rear of the cargo box is aluminum. The floor is sheet steel. The cargo bed may be covered with a hard top or bows and a tarpaulin. It may also carry containers, pallets, or specialized shelter bodies.

Hägglunds Moelv MB-63

Notes: This large multi-purpose trailer was designed to transport heavy loads such as large ISO containers, palletized loads, shelter/van bodies, and even light tracked and wheeled vehicles. The entire platform tilts to the rear to touch the ground, and the suspension "kneels," lowering to further enable loading. The trailer platform may also tilt forward to the ground to enable the the loaded vehicle to drive straight off the platform. Vehicles may be driven directly onto the cargo platform, while retractable rollers assist in loading cargo. Lockdown points are provided for NATO-compatible containers, shelter bodies, and pallets, while anchoring points are provided for vehicles. The two widely-separated axles are at the center of the trailer, and are cross-country capable and have a total of eight tires. The suspension has a load-leveling system. In addition to military concerns in seven countries, this trailer is in use by several humanitarian agencies worldwide to bring heavy equipment to afflicted areas.
