Transport solutions for Military

The HUBTEX multidirectional sideloaders are special vehicles for depots, warehouses, halls and factory buildings for transporting long loads (e.g. load carriers with torpedoes or guided missiles). With their HYBRID technology, they have both a combustion engine drive for outdoor use and an electric drive for indoor use. This combines the advantages of high performance and range with a reduction in CO2 emissions. At the same time, it ensures that ammunition safety is guaranteed and that occupational safety regulations are complied with.

Thanks to its large elastic tyres, the HUBTEX multidirectional sideloader is ideal for indoor and outdoor use on uneven ground and guarantees efficiency and high performance despite its low height, making it particularly suitable for bunker facilities with often low door heights.
Another technical advantage is that the batteries for the electric motors can be charged while driving with the diesel engine. Our technology guarantees high operational readiness.

The ROXX heavy-duty compact forklift truck is the ideal solution for applications in a military environment. Its robust design guarantees high quality and durability, making it a reliable partner for the defence forces worldwide.
 

In the military sector, heavy-duty forklifts are used to move particularly heavy and bulky goods. These include large types of ammunition, such as artillery shells and rockets, as well as armour and vehicle components (e.g. engines, chains). Aircraft parts, such as rotors and wings, and heavy communications or radar equipment are also included. Other loads comprise containers for equipment and catering, mobile generators and infrastructure such as concrete protective walls. These goods require forklifts with high load capacity, precision and manoeuvrability in order to transport them safely and meet the special requirements of the military. Thanks to its compact design—up to 25% narrower and 20% shorter than standard heavy-duty forklifts—and a patented single-wheel steering system that reduces the turning circle by up to 50%, the ROXX can manoeuvre effectively in confined spaces such as military depots, warehouses and maintenance facilities.

 

Designed for combined indoor and outdoor use, it offers the flexibility needed to meet a range of logistical challenges. Its high operational readiness and easy maintenance ensure maximum reliability in crucial situations. As an option, the ROXX can be equipped with explosion protection in accordance with the ATEX directive to allow it to operate safely in hazardous areas. 

HUBTEX industrial trucks are specially designed to meet the requirements of aircraft maintenance in the air force, army and naval aviation. They offer customised solutions, including mobile work platforms, telescopic platforms and handling equipment based on our multidirectional forklifts. A key feature of these vehicles is their high manoeuvrability in confined spaces, which is ensured by the omnidirectional steering system.

In addition, the vehicles are characterised by numerous customisation options that enable seamless integration into the respective military logistics or production process. The intelligent use of collision protection systems is particularly important in order to avoid contact with the aircraft at all costs and still work close to the aircraft. HUBTEX offers a wide range of equipment features and sensor systems for this purpose.
 

Hubtex industrial trucks, work platforms and telescopic platforms are used by well-known manufacturers and airlines for maintenance.
