Facts about the DINGO 2 Recovery Vehicle

Versatile system carrier platform, reliable and mission-proven

The DINGO 6x6 is capable of recovering and towing damaged vehicles in the 14 t weight class under combat conditions without wasting time. As the first vehicle in the DINGO 2 family, the 6x6 version is equipped with a hydraulic 10 t recovery winch with planetary gear, multi-plate clutch, as well as a cable brake and towing device.

Unlike conventional recovery vehicles, its compact size and high mobility allow it to follow patrols and convoys in deployment zones without trouble.

High performance capability – Low life-cycle costs – Easy maintenance

As a highly modern wheeled vehicle, the DINGO 2 is not only ideally equipped for diverse mission profiles and extreme terrain conditions, but also for a long and cost-effective service life. The militarised Unimog chassis reduces training and instruction effort for drivers and mechanics. The low-maintenance, robust diesel engine is also an economic advantage. Furthermore, the KNDS Deutschland customer service offers worldwide vehicle service – even directly in the deployment zone – and assists in spare part supply. This ensures that vehicles will be at full performance capability at all times.
