Ultimate Soldier Quad .50cal Anti-Aircraft Trailer Question
Does anybody know if the 1 1/2 Ton Dodge Troop Transport truck is the only vehicle setup to pull this trailer.  I was hoping the half-track could, but all mine don't appear the have an open hitch receiver.  Just wondering if anybody else had this same problem.  I guess I may have to modify one......Thanks in advance.

Re: Ultimate Soldier Quad .50cal Anti-Aircraft Trailer Quest
The 1/1 M-17 trailer with the Quad .50 cal mount had a weight of around 5,000 pounds.
The 6 wheel Dodge depected by 21C had a towing load of 3,500 pounds, so the vehicle designated as the tow vehicle had to be way larger than the Dodge. A CCKW is the right size but we are sorely missing a 1/18 CCKW and it looks like we will never see one in 1/18.
If you do not care about accuracy, use the Dodge as the tow vehicle.
