This medium cargo truck of the 5 ton category, is representative
of to-day's generation of logistical vehicles of the U.S. Forces. It
entered service in the early eighties. The M-923 has an extremely sturdy
structure and excellent off-road features, which are necessary to
secure the flow of material to the front line combat units. Based on
this chassis many versions have been produced: wrecking trucks, tank
trucks, mobile maintenance and communication trucks. The A-1 version is
characteristic because of its large off-road tires which have earned it
the nick-name Big Foot.
