DAF YA 4440 /4442 Viertonner - Ontwikkeling en historie van een militair werkpaard

Few Dutch military personnel, both professional and conscripted, have not encountered the now-iconic four-tonner. As the days of this vehicle type are numbered after nearly half a century, many still harbor warm sentiments for the old and reliable 'tonner.'

This book covers the complete history of the DAF YA 4440 and YA 4442: from the decision in the mid-1960s to replace the then over ten-year-old vehicles of the 'Dikke DAF family,' to their use in the armed forces and the inevitable decommissioning.

E

xtensive attention is also given to the testing and further development of the prototypes, a process not without its challenges but ultimately resulting in an exceptionally versatile vehicle that served in all branches of the military.

Even experts on this vehicle type will discover, after reading this book, that many often unknown facts and interesting details have come to light. All of this is illustrated through carefully compiled tables, various vehicle specifications, and over three hundred, mostly unpublished, photos and images.
