Historical context of the model: The M1101/M1102 light tactical trailer was designed as logistical support for high mobility vehicles (HMMWV, JLTV), serving to safely transport gear, generators, medical equipment, or engineering materials. Widely used in operations since the 1990s, both during conflicts (e.g. the Second Gulf War, the Afghanistan war) and in peacekeeping missions and joint exercises. The differences between the M1101 and M1102 concern mainly the maximum payload – the model allows you to build both variants depending on your diorama needs.

The product is ideal for expanding your collection of modern military vehicles or creating impressive logistic scenes on your diorama.
