In the simulation this vehicle provides resupply services for ammunition to the armed vehicles and missile/HMG teams represented in ''Steel Beasts Professional''. The vehicle may be made available to both Blue and Red forces. The HEMTT Cargo vehicle will only resupply units of its own side. Thus a Blue HEMTT Cargo truck cannot be used by a Red armed vehicle or infantry unit.

General

The M977 Heavy Expanded Mobility Tactical Truck is an 8x8 heavy cargo/utility truck that entered service with U.S. Army in 1982. Intended as a replacement for the 1960's era M520 "Goer", the HEMTT series has much greater mobility compared to that vehicle and the M92x/M93x series of five-ton trucks.

In the simulation this vehicle provides resupply services for ammunition to armed vehicles, infantry squads, and missile/HMG teams represented in Steel Beasts Professional. The vehicle may be made available to Blue, Red, and other factional forces. The HEMTT Cargo vehicle will only resupply units of its own side. Thus a Blue HEMTT Cargo truck cannot be used by a Red armed vehicle or infantry unit.

Resupply of ammunition can be accomplished by moving the unit which requires resupply close to the vehicle and then waiting. Resupply will automatically commence within a couple of minutes. Note that full resupply may take some time.

Additionally, the HEMTT Cargo may also be used to repair damage to vehicles.
