Crew: TwoVery little specific information is known about the RSG tractor. It is believed to be a late war prototype intended to further simplify production of the RSO/03 tractor. RSO is an abbreviation of the German designation: Raupenschlepper-Ost (Tracked tractor-East). Conditions on the Eastern Front, where already poor roads turned to seas of mud during rainy seasons and slush in the spring thaw, dictated the development of the RSO tractor series. The RSO/01, the first production type, entered production in 1941. The simplified RSO/03 replaced the RSO/01 tractor in production starting in 1944. The RSO/03 had a significantly simplified cab with wooden panels that greatly reduced production time and costs. The majority of RSO tractors produced were of the RSO/03 type. The RSOs could carry a load of approximately 1-1/2-tons. Steering was accomplished through upright steering levers connected to hydraulic brakes on the sprockets and idlers - much in the same way as a typical World War II tank. The RSO tractors proved very useful and popular with the German army. They were used extensively by towed artillery units. More than 27,000 RSO tractors were built during WW II.
