A large part of military operations is logistics. Moving materials from point to point across dangerous, uneven territory is a challenge for many military forces. Fortunately, International is an expert in this area. As the leading truck manufacturer in the construction and “severe-duty” category, International features strong, durable trucks that get the mission accomplished. The International ® 5000-MV trucks are built on the same type of platform as commercial dump trucks and gravel haulers. The rugged design of the cab and chasses ensures the trucks can handle rough terrain and demanding criteria.

The International ® 5000-MV truck is ideal for hauling heavy equipment, construction materials, vehicles and armaments. A classic long nose truck, it features a heavy-duty frame, outstanding visibility and unequalled ride quality. A proven Heavy-haul tractor, the International ® 5000-MV truck is currently being used in Heavy Equipment Transport Truck (HETT) applications in the Middle East. During the two Gulf Wars, the International 5900i was used by the U.S. Army to transport tanks across the Northern Saudi Arabian desert. Most importantly, International trucks are built with heavy hauling in mind, so they can easily be uparmored to help protect troops without sacrificing vehicle performance.
