Diecast Masters 1/87 Caterpillar CT681 On-Highway Truck Concrete Mixer Diecast Model

Production of the KrAZ-260 began some time during the early 1980s when it replaced the earlier KrAZ-255B on the production lines at the Kremenchug Motor Vehicle Plant.

However, the vehicle was not disclosed to the general public until 1985 when examples were displayed towing 152-mm 2A36 nuclear-capable field guns during a Red Square parade - the KrAZ-260 can tow loads of up to 10 000 kg when fully loaded (30 000 kg when empty).

The Red Square example had an open body equipped with forward-facing bench seats although this had been a parade configuration.

The normal body uses a conventional cargo body with tailgate all covered by the usual tilt over bows. A winch is a standard fitting under the cargo body and can be employed for either forward or rearwards recovery, including self-recovery.
