This is a model of a 1979-1981 MAN KAT1 LKW 7t mil gl Pritsche, powered by a 320-hp MAN diesel, and made by MAN SE for the German Bundeswehr.

MAN KAT1 LKW 7t mil gl Pritsche = MAN Kategorie 1, Last kraft wagen, 7 tonne, militarisiert geländegängig, Pritsche = MAN Category 1, Truck, 7 ton, military cross country mobile, flatbed with fold-down sides.

Although deliveries of the MAN KAT1 began in 1976, the first delivery of this model of 6x6 cargo/troop carrier did not begin until January 1979. Some 1,500 of this model were produced and used by at least eight different countries.
