Cargo Truck (South Korea)

The Cargo Truck is a South Korean heavy truck featured in Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction.

Overview
The Cargo Truck is used by the South Korean Union to transport supplies into and across North Korea. It is large, unwieldy, and can only carry 2 people. Despite its purpose as a cargo mover, the bed is always empty and they are never seen being used. Two of them can only be found near the warehouses at Chongju Airfield parked a short distance from each other.

The Cargo Truck is not uniform with the rest of the South Korean fleet, it is much lighter than the blue and grey scheme used on other SKU vehicles, but much lower contrast compared to the Chinese Cargo Truck. It also has a broken LOD (Level Of Detail) model when viewed from a short distance away. The Cargo Truck shares its appearance with the Allied Nations variant as well as the Song Motor Company SMC 2100.

Tactics
The South Korean Cargo Truck has the same armor, speed and capacity of other nations' trucks. The lack of armament makes this vehicle a poor choice for combat. A good use of the truck is infiltration: while driving one, the player can enter areas controlled by the SKU without being noticed, if he pays attention to the officers.

Real Life
Unlike most vehicles in Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction, the Cargo Truck is not named after an existing real-life vehicle. However the Cargo Truck strongly resembles the 2-door variant of the Dongfeng EQ2102 used by the People's Liberation Army. Differences between the Cargo Truck and EQ2102 include a single windshield (not parted), a slightly different shaped window on the door, and square headlights rather than circular.
