Description:

Please report any issues with a detailed description and I will try to fix them.

Update: Slightly increased fuel economy and top speed to around 90 kmh. Promotional material has been updated as a result. To increase the top speed further (at the expense of efficiency and stability) increase the gear ratio of the red gearbox on the underside of the truck.

The Heavy All-Terrain Tractor (HATT) is an 8×8 military tractor unit designed to transport, deploy, and recover armored vehicles and other heavy equipment. It was designed by Eastern Precision Systems Motor Works to support joint operations outside the Japanese islands, where its immense towing power would be needed to move heavy western armored vehicles.

If you really just want to drive and are impatient like me, read this. If you have a bit more time and want to learn how to get the best use out of the HATT, check out the operator’s manual.

1. Optionally load a SIBTaT-compatible trailer with the truck as a subassembly in a workbench. EPS offers a massive 72,000 L bulk fuel trailer.
2. Spawn the truck.
3. Enter the right side of the vehicle by pressing the red arrow button by the wheel well.
4. Once you sit down, the door will close behind you automatically. Turn the ignition key to the right of the steering column.
5. Once everything powers on (the gauges will illuminate), use the arrow keys to shift into the gear you want. The gear is displayed at the bottom of the monitor screen.
6. Light controls are to the left of the instrument cluster. Turn signals can be used by pressing [1] and [2]. These automatically turn off after executing a turn.
7. Happy travels! (I still really recommend reading the manual though.)

See the window sticker below for a quick overview.

So here it is. A real vehicle (wow). I cannot tell you how many iterations of refining this thing has gone through (and probably still needs, lol). Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy the fruits of my labor, share, like, and whatnot. As usual, if you upload a build to the workshop that modifies or uses any parts from this truck, please provide a link to this original post.
