Cat Thirty (1925-1938)
The Cat Thirty is a smaller tractor than the Cat Sixty (upon which the Stalinets S-60 was based). While the Cat Thirty was mainly used as a farming tractor, a variety of add-ons were produced in the ’30s and ’40s for various tracked tractors to expand their roles, so this mod imagines some of those extra features added to a Cat Thirty to help fill out some missing vehicles in the Early Start DLC’s roster. Note that while the Early Start DLC is not required to use this mod, these Cat Thirty models are slow with a low working capacity and will likely have limited utility once better replacements are available.
All models have a base power of 27kw and a top speed of 9 km/h when not carried on a truck. These vehicles are available from 1925 to 1938 can be purchased for dollars.
