Specifications Opel Blitz Tanker Truck 1945 blueprint
The Opel Blitz Tanker Truck was Germany's primary fuel transport truck during World War II. Produced by the Adam Opel AG company, its simple box-shaped design was considered both utilitarian and iconic. Built from a stout steel frame, the vehicle was basic yet sturdy. Its utilitarian form was streamlined, with a single-tone colour scheme and lack of embellishments. This meant that the vehicle was designed for purpose, rather than aesthetics. The spare design of the Tanker Truck meant that it could tackle a variety of terrain and weather with ease. Its four-wheel drive system provided ample power to the compliant suspension, allowing it to traverse even the roughest of roads without issue. This was particularly useful in Europe, where the terrain could be unpredictable and dangerous. The short wheelbase of the Tanker Truck allowed it to carry up to 3 tons of fuel. Its large and thick steel fuel tanks were well positioned and could handle tough bumps and jostling. The driver was situated in the spacious cab, and had ample room to perform their duties comfortably. The exterior of the Opel Blitz Tanker Truck was fitted with a standard dark grey livery. But, the occasional markings of unit insignia could be found on the body, adding a nice touch of colour against the drab colours of war. At a time when supply of fuel was particularly limited, the dependable and hard-working Opel Blitz Tanker Truck provided a vital service to the German army. In 1945, it was an ubiquitous sight on the European battlefields. Its legacy lives on today, serving as a reminder of a difficult war time for a nation.
