Overview

The M88A3 features a number of upgrades, including an modernized powertrain that improves horsepower and torque, the addition of a seventh road-wheel to increase stability, and hydro-pneumatic suspension units (HSUs) that improve cross country mobility and recovery operations.

The M88A3’s enhancements improve its speed, hoisting and winching capacity, survivability and reliability. Most importantly, these upgrades enable a single M88A3 to recover the most modern versions of the M1A2 Tank.
