The M915 is the baseline model of a series of heavy army trucks. In the late 1970s, the US Army was looking for commercial logistic trucks, and in 1977 a request was issued for a series of heavy vehicles. AM General offered the lowest price and was selected, after which the US Army awarded a contract for 5507 trucks. The first vehicles were delivered in 1978. The M915 Line Haul Tractor was mainly used for long-distance movement of containers, from port areas to division operation areas, usually towing an M872 semi-trailer with a 30-ton payload capacity.

This Trumpeter kit brings the functional character of the M915 convincingly into 1:35 scale. The tractor is based on a 6x4 configuration, and the real truck was powered by a Cummins NTC 400 turbocharged diesel engine developing 400 hp, connected to a Caterpillar semi-automatic gearbox with 16 forward and 2 reverse gears. With over 500 parts, a detailed cab, full drivetrain, rubber tyres with strong tread pattern and clear window parts, this model kit offers a rich and realistic building experience.
