Tankograd Publishing has announced the latest titles they are releasing. As usual for Tankograd Publishing there are six new offerings including the Urban Panzer Ops title we released news of previously. Take a look inside to see what is on offer on this occasion.
MB 1017
The Mercedes-Benz 5-ton Trucks Type 1017/1017A - History, Variants, Service

The 5-ton trucks of the Bundeswehr are the backbone of German military logistics since the 1950s. From 1977 the Mercedes-Benz MB 1017 truck family took over the legacy to become a legend known to all German soldiers serving in the past thirty years. 15,000 MB 1017 trucks were fielded both in the 4x2 and 4x4 configurations and in an almost unbelievable number of variants. This publication tells the story of this Bundeswehr truck legend for the first time comprehensively and lavishly illustrated.

Besatzungstruppe US Army
From Enemy to Ally - U.S. Army Occupation Forces in Germany 1945-55

From enemy to ally - Almost exactly ten years after World War Two, a period when American and German forces had been fierce enemies, West Germany joined the U.S.-led NATO as an ally of the Cold War in May 1955. This publication describes the U.S. occupation forces in Germany, their organisation and vehicles, from 1945 to 1955 focussing not only on wartime material that soldiered on into the post-war era but also on then highly modern new weapon systems often fielded with U.S. units in Germany for the very first time.
This work closes a vital gap in Tankograd’s coverage of the pre-REFORGER-era.

Opel Blitz 3-Tonner
The Most Famous Truck of the Wehrmacht and its Variants
Updated and enlarged reprint: + 16 pages + 36 new photos!

When asked for the most famous and best-known truck of the German Wehrmacht in World War Two, the name ‘Opel Blitz’ automatically comes up. Despite all its fame the background of its purchase, the military versions and the impressed civilian types, were hitherto not well documented. The three production models and the many variants and different body-types of the backbone of German road-based supply during the war were not very well known. This publication now grants a deeper look into the Opel Blitz story. Both in written and comprehensive pictorial form the unique truck design and its derivatives are shown here in unprecedented detail.
