The 6x4, 8-ton YaG-10 truck was produced from 1932 to 1940 by the Yaroslavl Motor Plant.[1] 333 trucks were made, 61 of which were converted into 76.2mm anti-aircraft trucks.[2][3][4] It was powered by a Hercules-YXC engine, originally from the United States but later copied, and 4-speed Brown-Lipe-554 gearbox, also later copied and produced domestically. The suspension was based on trucks made by the Moreland Truck Company.[5] While capable of carrying 8 tons on paved surfaces, it was limited to 5 tons offroad. It had a maximum speed of 42 km/h and fuel consumption of 60 liters per 100 km.
