UNDER REALISTIC CONDITIONS AT THE AIR BASE: + The F59 offers best traction based on 4-wheel-drive and equal weight distribution on both axles. + Designed to move combat aircraft. This considers operational conditions of wet concrete (friction coefficient μ=0,57), 2-3% apron inclination, and no running aircraft engines. + Also heavier aircraft up to 70 tons can be moved, such as the C-130. Apron inclination in this case 1%. + If your operation varies from above mentioned scenarios, please contact us and we will provide you with an exact calculation in accordance with your specific operation conditions. OPERATION WEIGHTS MTOW MAX. DRAWBAR PULL INSTALLED 02-F59 | 08/2021-EN | METRIC The actual range of applications of the F59 is checked by Goldhofer prior to order confirmation.
