Has anyone seen

[MilitaryRestoration]

Has anyone seen the Hemett with some sort of unfolding device on the back of it and I mean huge unfolding device. We saw one going north bound as we were going south so couldn't get any pictures, disappointing to myself..., but was wondering if it something new, as I have never seen anything like it before...

Unfolding how? There are Palletized Loading Systems, Load Handling Systems, Bridge Transporters, The launcher for a THAAD missile battery; the list goes on and on.
Go to google, click on the images tab, do a search for HEMTT and see if anything looks familiar.

went through 30 pages of the google search but found not one that looked like it...it was almost like a transformer looking vehicle, honestly...the only thing i could think up of was some huge unfolding satellite dish or something i have no clue....

I bet this is what he's referring to. It's a private development venture.

Pretty cool use of a hemtt if you ask me.

That trailer on GL was half a HEMTT. BTW, that sure looks like BKubu's HEMTT

It was my pleasure to visit the good man and take a little tour of his fleet of toys while I picked up my NOS cargo cover for the ISO bed.
