Ostauto COST 6x6 Close Operational Support Tanker

DESCRIPTION

---

The Ostauto COST 6x6 Close Operational Support Tanker is a multi-role tanker truck capable of carrying water and fuel to troops on the battlefield, or diesel and jet fuel to aircraft and other vehicles on a base. With it's 18,370L two segment tank on the rear it ensures that it will be able to support multiple vehicles without needing to go for a refill itself. The COST was developed as a replacement for the Newquay Logistics Corps' ageing Multi-Use Tanker Truck, with the newer Ostauto design style and power train. It also features rear wheel steering in a tri-axle wheel layout allowing for improved manoeuvrability on military bases with narrow access roads and tight turns. The COST is also the first Ostauto vehicle to come as standard in Desert Livery.
