Silver Eagle Introduces TMPST Trailer — allows transport of larger generators by HMMWVs

Portland, Oregon (09/25/09) - Silver Eagle Manufacturing Company, the leader in military trailers, has announced its latest product — the Tactical Mobile Power Source Trailer, or TMPST. The trailer will make its debut at the Modern Day Marine show on September 29, 2009.

The TMPST allows larger generators, up to 60kW, to be towed into the field by standard or up-armored HMMWVs. Additionally, with a 7,000 lb GVW, it increases the towing capability of the HMMWV by 66% providing a payload capacity of up to 5,450 lbs

“The TMPST allows higher output generators, previously required to be moved by larger prime movers, to now be moved by HMMWVs, “ said Robin Johnson, Vice President of Program Management for Silver Eagle. “This not only allows the power sources to be more mobile, but also frees up the larger vehicles for other purposes.”

Built for severe duty environments, the TMPST is constructed of durable aircraft-grade aluminum and HSLA steel. An Electrodeposition coating (E-coat) provides excellent corrosion resistance.

The TMPST suspension is based on Silver Eagle’s proven off-road trailer platform, featuring an independent air-ride suspension to make it to the last tactical mile.
