Nice pics,
The nomenclature of the 'Contractor' reflected the fact that it was used for both the 35 ton plant trailer and the 60 ton tank transporter. Both trailers were used in South Vietnam, though I think the early Steco prototype (the one sent to SVN) had to have the goose neck winched back into position by the tractor, rather than have its own hydraulics.
The M577A1 ACV on the back is an interesting one. Do you know an approx date and unit for it, per chance?
