Eagle HLT (Heavy Lift Transport)

Here are some images of my kitbash of the Eagle HLT (Heavy Lift Transport) inspired from the Space 1999 universe. Built from two MPC 1/72 scale MPC Eagle 1 Transport kits and parts from my spares box.

With two and a half times the lifting capacity as the Eagle Transports the Eagle HLT was instrumental in the construction of Moonbase Alpha.

Built like a big truck with the equivalent of the two rear wheel axles, very ingenious :) Cool!

LOL!! That's exactly what I was thinking!

Semi-truck was my first thought too, on seeing your model! Does that make the extra service module behind the cockpit a sleeper cab? And shine up those engine bells. Any self-respecting big rig has chrome stacks!

'Twas the dark of the moon/ on the 13th of September/ And an Eagle haulin' waste ... OK, that doesn't work.
