Historical description of Clarktor 6 MILL-33:
Produced since 1942, the Clarktor 6 tug was an indispensable airfield vehicle during World War II. Renowned for its reliability and high towing power (up to 90 tons), it was used to handle not only bomb trailers but also to tow heavy bombers at American and British airfields. The MILL-33 version, with a drawbar pull capacity of over 2 tons, was mainly supplied to the RAF under the Lend Lease Act, including the BH variant adapted for demanding British conditions.

Mark 2 bomb trailers:
The included Mark 2 type trailers are reproduced with the utmost attention to detail, including the loading ramp and cradle system. These were essential to wartime logistics—enabling safe and efficient transport of bombs weighing up to 900 kg under aircraft, even in the most challenging airfield conditions.
