Terex Demag MAC 50 8x8 All Terrain Crane - £POA

Built in Germany, the Terex-Demag MAC-50 (Military All-terrain Crane) was developed from the commercially available Terex AC-50-1 to meet a USMC requirement for an all-terrain crane capable of lifting 50 tons.

Procured for heavy lift operations in the field, such as construction or bridging materials, containers, vehicles and other cargo, it is suitable for rapid deployment. The MAC-50 can perform a task and then quickly redeploy to the next mission site with a road speed of up to 76kmph and a range of 480km

This military crane uses a standard commercial cab, which provides seating for two men. When operating, the MAC-50 is controlled from a separate one-man cab.

The MAC-50 is powered by a Cummins QSC multi-fuel diesel engine, developing 333hp. It is coupled to an Allison transmission. All four axles are driven and steered. This all-terrain crane can ford water obstacles up to 1.5 m deep and can operate in climatic conditions ranging from -32°C to +50°C and is designed to be airportable.
