Truck running gear with low-torsion chassis
Normally trucKs have torsicning frames with open U section main members. Over rough country this leads to twisting cf the chassis and thus of the body. That is why M.A.N. developed a lowtorsion frame for its cross-country military t rucks. It consists of box section main members with welded-on tubular cross members. This novel conception for chassis and running gear gives the second-generation vehicles their outstanding driving characteristics ar.d allows high operating speeds over difficult an d moderately diffic 1.1lt terrain.

~1.A.N. - Outboard planetary axles
Al l the West German army's second generation cross-cou ntry trucks are fitted with axles having planetary final drives incorporated in the hubs. Apart fro m minor adaptations to meet military operational requirements they are identical with the planetary fi nal drive axles installed on civi lian trucks. These axles are also fitted to the 7 t (4 x 2) and 10 t (6 x 4) trucks which M.A.N. suppl ies to th e Bundeswehr fo r operation behind the front lines. Furtherrnora th ey also have a high degree of log istical uniformity with the axles of the reconnaissanc e car (8 x 8) " Luchs" and of the armoured transporter (6x6). Axles with outboard planetary fi nal d;ives ·enable large gear reductions to be accommodated in a small space. Torque and engine speed is reduced
in two stages: in the spiral bevel gear drive in th e axle centre, and in the planetary final drives in the hubs. Full torque becomes effective in the wheel hubs. The axle centre drive is of small dimension. This results in high ground clearance, which is of particular importance for military vehicles.
The large rad ial tyres have an optimal tread for fast on- road operation and for the ground conditions normally encountered in central Europe. Snow chains are envisaged for extreme weather conditions, particularly fo r deep snow. The differentials of all nonsteering axles are lockable.

Transmission ZF Synchromesh Transmission 4S-150 8-speed
The tra'1Sffiission unit consists of a hydraulic torque converter with lock- up clutch, foot-operated clutch, 8-speed synchrorresh gearbox and 3-axle transfer case with differential lock between front and rear-axle drive. T'ne entire unit is in rronobloc fonn and on t.'1e two and t.li..ree-axled vehicles is bolted to the engine . On the four-axled trucks the transmission block is separetely rrrn.mted and driven via a drive shaft . A free-wheel lock enables tcM- starting of engine in spite of drive-off torque converter.

Example:
Future Growth
M.A.N.'s Low-Torsion Box Frame and Suspension System now allows the German M.O . D. to utilize these vehicles in special sensitive applications, such as you see below.
truck as rocket launcher The 7 t gl (6 x 6) chassis fully meets the requirements for operation with light art i llery rocket launchers, i.e. rapid on-road transport, even over long distances, rapid change of fi ring position. even in the most difficult country.
truck as fire-control vehicle The 5 t gl (4 x 4) truck fully meets the requirements for operation as carrier for fire-control equi pment, i.e. it has the same transport speed and the same high degree of cross-couf'ltry manoeuvrability as the weapon systems.

1.
Introduction In the Federal Republic of Germany, M.A.N., has a service network of 139 M.A.N.-owned service centers and 124 authorized repair shops.
The map shows the
distribution of these facilities. The 139 M.A.N. service centers furnish M.A.N. with a repair capacity of 1,320 t~~cks.
Trained specialists
work approximately 3.1 million manhours per year repairing and maintaining vehicles. About 4,250 workers are presently employed in the service centers .
The number of workers per center
ranges from 10 to 265 workers depending on size. A manager in charge of each service center is directly responsible to M.A.N. 's central management. 2.
Service The M. A.N.-owned service centers perform service on 100,000 commercial vehicles, i. e. trucks and buses
and 20,000 to 30,000 military trucks of the Bundeswehr. Each center repair shop is equipped to carry out
maintenance and repair work.
IV/1
M. A.N. CCRPORAT:CN
~or reason of economy and efficiency, centralized repair centers have been established according to the Germa n ~1ili tary map for repair of ::1ili tary vehicles and their assemblies.
Additional
repair shops may be established when r equired. Intensive continous training is proveded by M. A.N. to ensure high level of proficiency in ser~ice of their ~ilitary veh ic les. The service Centers operate on the basis of s tandard guidelines specified by central management: - Work is _performed i n accordance with standard recommend ed times catalog. Standard times fo r completion of repairs and spare parts deliveri es is specified . - Standard invoicing guidelines. Hourly rates are determined separately for each service center and are published to their customers based upon commercial rates within that area. Sununarv M.A.N . has executed maintenance contracts with the Belgian Canadian Army and is currently carrying cut maintenance work for these forces. This !'lew ccncept is cost effective to the Bundeswehr and will a lso be beneficial to the U. S. Mil i tary, West Germany .

The M.A.N. company has modified a MAN truck into a 10-ton tracto·r, outf Hted to meet t he configuration re(tuirenent s f or a Pil tracto r. An 1·:127 trailer modification kit, d~signed by Ma~tin Marietta Aerospace , will be ins t al led by MAN at their shop in Munich to simulate the Pl! EL lo ad (weight, cg). Martin Marie t ta will supply four super single tires mou~t!O on ~1eels (plus one spare), four wheel-spacers to provice proper trackin;, and necessary wheel. mounting lugs. Also. Ma,t-in Mal"ietta will provice three advisory person~el in Germany (one test advisor. one engineer, and one rnov·ie ph'ot~grapher') • ca 1cul ate weight and eg, provide plans and procedures contair1'in_~ PII performance levels for the mobility demonstrat~on, and perform packing and crating, with shipp ing of the support equipment to be arranged by PPMO. MAN will remove the exhting \lffleels ·,,cm the Hl27 tr'ail°er, · instal'l the Martin Mal'ietta Aerospace-supplied spacers. wheels and tires, proviode bal last for the Ml27 trailer, provide t,actor suppo,t, and provide a tractor driver. No instrum~ritation will be required except photographic coverage and stop watches.· aase of operations for-.the mobility demonstration in German environment will be at Schwabisch Gmund.

Primary and secondary roads 11 be traveled to obtain cw.parison perform• ance on various terrain, including gradeability slopes selected . ., for their steepness. · .·o ff-road condi t 1ons near . some of the previous . Pershing maneuver areas, such as north of Mauibrann, should provide some typical mud environment. Also, trails and selected firing site access route$ .wi}l be ~raveled for comparison:purposes, taking into consideration the differences between . . Pla and PII o_perational scenilrios. ~
Each demonstration wil 1 be ,conducted using the fo110',-Jing four configura. ' tions: the M757/Pla EL vs the MAN/Pla EL, and the M757/PI1 El load vs the MAN/PII EL load. The configurations will each traverse the identical test c01i1rse to dupi ·icate the ·'conditions as closely as possible.

10 TON M.A.N. TRACTOR PI! TRACTOR/EL DEMONSTRATION PROCEOURE JUNE, 1980
APPROVED B Y ~ 1wood S. Brown
TEST PROCE:.DUl
INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND PPMO has decided to conduct a Tractor/EL demonstration in Germany using a M.A.N . 10 ton truck that has been shortened and converted into a tractor configuration and an Ml27 trailer which will be modified and loaded to simulate the PII erector 1aunche r·. A request has been made to the appropriate people in Germany to select areas in which to conduct the demonstration tha t are representative Of the areas in which .Pershing is presently deployed . A P1a M757/EL will be put through the same demonstration for comparison purposes.
8.
PURPOSE The purpose of this demonstration is to demonstrate the performance capabilities of the M.A. N. tractor as a prime mover of a (simulated) PI! tactically loaded erector launcher. II.

TEST OPERATIONS
A.
GENERAL This demonstration will be conducted at preselected locations that closely si mulate or duplicate the terrain and conditions encountered during tactical exercises. The demonstration will utilize the M757/EL Pla tactical load and the M.A.N. - Ml27 trailer simulating the PII erector launcher .tactical load. If time permits, the tractors will be switched and the demonstration conducted again except that the M.A.N. - Pla EL will not be driven through the mud. Data will be recorded on sheets as shown · in Figures l and 2.
B.
DEMO"JSTRATION l. The right angle intersection of two 24-foot wide roadways can be marked off on a level paved area with tape or any suitable materi~1. The tractor-trailer will attempt to negotiate this inter~ection in one pass. lhe area of interest is· the wheel track, curb to curb. Overhang is of academic interest only. This will be documented with motion pictu res . 2. ·1·he paved road demo nstration will be used to determine the top speed of both loads . The distance required to reach top speed i s not a factor. Motion pictures will be taken. 3. The secondary road demonstration is to determine handling characteristics over unpaved roads through hilly terrain at speeds up to and including 30 MPH. Motion pictures will be taken. 4. The gradability sl ope demonstration should be conducted on a s lope or hill of 20% grade. The tractor-trailer will negotiate the slope fr~m a standing start at the bottom of the slope. Ti me, di stance, and top s pee d will be recorded. Motion pictures will be taken . 5. The mud demonstration should be conducted as follows: Prepare 3 mud sites of 100" in length and 20' \
