Description |
The MaxxPro Wrecker is the latest version of the MaxxPro family vehicle. Navistar unveiled its MaxxPro Wrecker MRAP vehicle in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., on February 25, shortly after the Army and the Marine Corps released their RFI. The MaxxPro Wrecker, a towing vehicle that can haul 81,000 pounds, was designed to target a requirement such as the MRAP recovery vehicle. The International® MaxxPro® Wrecker MRAP vehicle allows two- to three-man crews to retrieve damaged or mission-disabled vehicles and carry out other support missions. The new MaxxPro utility variant provides its crew with the same ballistics, mine and Improvised Explosive Devise (IED) protection used on all MaxxPro MRAP vehicles currently in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Armament |
The MaxxPro Wrecker doesn’t have any armament in the basic configuration.
|
Protection |
The MaxxPro Wrecker uses the V-shape hull design coupled with armor and other survivability features. Like other MaxxPro family vehicles, MaxxPro Wrecker seeks to provide troops with an increased level of protection against small arms fire, RPGs, mineblasts, improvised explosive devices (IEDs), and other hazards when compared to the up-armored HMMWV.
|
Propulsion |
Navistar's MaxxPro Wrecker vehicle is built with some of the same parts used to build MaxxPro MRAPs such as an Allison transmission, 570 amp alternator and 375 horsepower engine. The MaxxPro Wrecker uses a 6x6 chassis, with two wheels at the front, and four wheels at the rear.
|
Accessories |
The crew compartment is replaced by a recovery crane, mounted to the rear side of the chassis. Tools box are mounted to the right and left sides of the chassis. A recovery winch is also mouted at the front of the vehicle.
