09:31 "Release the trailer air supply button to pressurize the trailer air system"... while the video shows the driver doing the exact opposite, setting the trailer brakes!
I never really looked, but I would say they don't use fifth wheel grease, but instead used a dry pad,maybe ? as it is used in sand of the middle East on some units.
This system is obsolete in the military now with an OshKosh A1 version using a CAT 18 engine instead of the Detroit Diesel. Yes, grease is suppose to be used for the 5th wheel on this mode. The new HET used a Teflon layered fifth wheel that requires no lube.
The USMC MK(Mark)48 LVS transport trucks from the '80's were nicked named the "Dragon Wagon", they were similar to the Army's HEMTT trucks but ours had an articulating center steering section for more maneuverability and detachable front power units. These are now being replaced/upgraded with the LVSR trucks that do away with the previous center section for a straight frame design similar to the HEMTT.
@@npsit1 In the USMC,the LVS MK-48 was always called a "dragon wagon",if you were a 3533,you were a "dragon master".The M25-M26 Chain Drive armor transporter had the same nick name as well.
Oh yeah, hearing protection within 10 feet of APU, yeah sure.

I wish navy would make training videos like these
2 operators, 10 times the time it takes and that's just hooking up to an empty trailer, must take hours to actually load it.
When I served in Ft. Lewis, there was a HET unit. I wasn’t fond of going to the field so I dodged a bullet there. And an amazing experience too.
Dam if u had to do all that logging u would get but one skidder moved a month
Welcome to the way the military does things. everything has a checklist. Each item must be signed off on.
Funny, the video talks about lube lube lube and the 5th wheel looks dry as a bone.

OMG, now tires were check. smh.
Isnt this nick-named the dragon wagon ?
Eli Levine yes back in WWII
it is not the dragon wagon. the dragon wagon is the mk48 lvs
The M25 40 ton tank transporter had that name. Not the MK48.
