This set has been designed especially for demanding modelers who want to build a realistic replica of a heavy truck tractor and a trailer dedicated to transporting tanks and armored vehicles.

The model represents the American Heavy Equipment Transporter System (HETS) set, M1070 + M1000 HET, used from the 1990s up to the present day in the US Army.
