hi there, i worked at AEC during the 70s when the mk3 militant was made, it was required that the vehicle must do 50mph, this was stipulated by the MOD, when the chassis cab was made it then went to Thornycroft for winch, top half of the cab was by Park Royal coachmakers, a heavy duty air cleaner behind the cab made by Burgess,

@@-CorporalCharles06 I think I have other information, but would have to dig it out. This is from memory as recovery mechanics we had to learn vehicle info. Tractive effort was 12.3 tons or 12.5 tonnes. Winch was 7/8 diameter, 450 feet length, 390 feet working length. Winch put,was 15 tons, you could increase to 30 tons with snatch block.

Top speed 48 1/2 mph. 7.8 miles per gallon. 48 gallon tank with range 374 miles. Hill climb 1 in 1.46 with stop and restart. I used one, liked it, I only wish they had soundproofed the cab, increased the air cylinders size, stronger brakes, more powerful engine and bigger lift crane.
