CHUCK Wagon

Notes: The CHUCK (Central Heat Unit Cogeneration Kitchen) is a lightweight field kitchen trailer that uses a novel heat generation system to produce a lighter trailer that uses less fuel yet produces more energy. Instead of individual burners and generators for the appliances, the CHUCK Wagon uses a central energy production unit. The unit circulates thermal fluid to the various heating elements as well as powering electrical appliances. The thermal fluid is usually food-grade mineral oil, and the generator produces 11 kW of electrical energy, 6 kW of which is used by the heating elements. The CHUCK Wagon includes a convection oven, a large griddle, two 76-liter kettles, a 38-liter water heater, a 55-liter fryer, and four burners. The kitchen comes with a complete range of cookware and cooking utensils, and a small refrigerator and freezer, as well as an electric blender and mixer. The unit is normally towed by a HMMWV. The generator burns 8 liters per period, and may burn any type of military liquid fuel (aviation fuel is preferred). An 80-liter fuel tank is provided for its operation. The CHUCK Wagon is designed to serve 200 persons per day.

Containerized Batch Laundry (CBL)

Notes: One luxury during wartime that is much appreciated is clean clothes and gear. To this end, the Containerized Batch Laundry system was invented. This is a standard 8x8x20' ISO container with a milspec laundrymat inside. The CBL contains two 23 kg capacity heavy-duty washers, two 34 kg capacity heavy-duty dryers, a water pump, a tank for wastewater, and various hoses, exhaust fans, and connections required. Various preprogrammed wash cycles may be used, taking into account the amount and type of material being washed, from underclothes to TA-50. The system also comes with a 32-square-meter tent for use as an area for folding and packing washed gear or drying material that cannot use the dryer. The CBL can be set up by 4 people in 1 1/2 hours. The CBL comes with an integral 115-liter water tank and a system that recaptures and reuses 30% of the water used in the wash cycles. (The recaptured water is not potable without treatment.) An external 60kW generator must be provided separately. This container may be carried by any vehicle or trailer with the necessary load-carrying ability and cargo bed space (2.5x6.1 meters).

Notes: Despite the name, this trailer is not just for ammunition, though one of its primary roles is to haul ammunition pallets for MLRS and LARS vehicles. Other common rules include carrying other heavy ammunition and rubber fuel bladders. The trailer has no side, font, or rear walls, so no loose items can be carried, but the trailer is equipped with 22 reinforced tie-down points. The HEMAT is normally towed by a HEMTT truck, but can also be towed by other vehicles of at least 15 tons, or the MLRS or LARS vehicle itself. They may be transported unloaded in a C-130 or CH-47 aircraft, or loaded in a C-141 or C-5 aircraft. The HEMAT may also be carried loaded while slung beneath a CH-47 or other heavy-lift helicopter.

The trailer may also be powered from commercially available power sources. The LADS may be operated in temperatures ranging from 33-120 degrees Fahrenheit (0.6-49 degrees Celsius). Little setup, other than hooking up power and supplying water (if not present) is required, so setup may be accomplished by 4 soldiers in as little as one hour.

Light Vehicle Transporter Semi-Trailer

Notes: This semi-trailer is used not only to transport damaged vehicles, but when transporting light armored vehicles long distances (as it is more fuel efficient to transport them using a semi-tractor trailer than having them go a long distance under their own power). Before the war, they were also used to transport light tracked vehicles over roads that the local government did not want torn up by treads, but now that question is moot. The trailer consists of a flatbed area with cable tie-downs to prevent the carried vehicle from shifting during transport. These trailers typically have two or three axles and 8-10 tires.

LMTV Trailer

Notes: This trailer was purpose-designed to be towed behind the M-1078 Light Medium Tactical Vehicle (see Unarmored Vehicles file). It is a heavy-duty two-wheeled trailer that uses the wheels, tires, and many of the suspension components of the M-1078. The trailer is equipped with reinforced tie-down points, and can handle standard NATO pallets and containers, as well as equipment such as rubber fuel cells, generators, and workshop modules. The trailer is matched to the LMTV and MTV, and does hinder their maneuverability. Other vehicles of equivalent size or larger may tow it, but do not get the same maneuverability benefit. The sides and the rear of the trailer may be dropped to facilitate cargo handling.

MTV Trailer

Notes: This trailer was designed to be towed by the M-1083 Medium Tactical Vehicle (see the Unarmored Vehicles document). It is a 4-wheeled trailer that is matched to the M-1083 and does not hinder its mobility. (It is too heavy to be towed by the M-1078.) Other vehicles may tow it, but do not get the same mobility benefits. The MTV Trailer uses the wheels, tires, and many of the suspension components of the M-1083. The sides and rear of the trailer may be dropped to facilitate cargo handling.

NBC Decontamination Trailer

Notes: This is a large, trailer fitted with all the necessary equipment for field decontamination needs. (This same equipment is fitted to certain trucks and armored vehicles on both sides.) The trailer has four modules: a cold water prewash hose system fitted to 1000-liter water tank, 500-liter tank that sprays chemicals needed to neutralize and scrub contamination particles from vehicles and equipment, and a steam generator for post-decontamination treatment, fed from a 1000-liter tank. Another 1000-liter tank is used to feed a hot water personnel shower, which is housed in a small tent set up next to the trailer when in use. (The tent is provided with the trailer.) The NBC decontamination system is powered by a 60 kW generator. An optical chemical sniffer and Geiger counter are provided with the trailer. Note that unlike the Steam Decontamination Trailer described in the Twilight: 2000 Version 2.2 rules, treatment with this equipment will make irradiated materials partially safe, removing approximately one-half the radiation value of irradiated equipment (not radioactive materials), and completely removing fallout.

Notes: This trailer provides some badly needed creature comforts for field troops. It is a box-body trailer that can provide showers for up to 8 troops at once. Water is provided from a 500-liter drum, and fed through a hot water heater (as described in the Twilight: 2000 Version 2.2 rules), except that this unit can heat 300 liters at a time and heats water very rapidly. Shower length may be controlled by the person taking the shower, or by controls outside the unit.

Water Desalination Trailer

Notes: Despite the name, this trailer is capable of more than just water desalination. The unit can remove salt, fallout, silt, sand, mud, biological contaminants (including viruses), and organic material from water. It may be towed by a vehicle of 2½ tons or larger; the unit may also be removed from the trailer, and mounted on any vehicle capable of carrying the weight of the treatment unit itself (1.45 tons). This unit can filter water from containers, or siphon water directly from a natural source such as a river, pond, or ocean. It is capable of filtering 1,000 liters per hour, and the filters function for 24,000 liters before replacement is needed. (Filters weigh 200 kg and cost $2,000.) The unit is equipped with its own 5 kW generator.
