Eurosatory '1967–pr.

In June 2017, Liebherr received an order from the Federal Office for Bundeswehr Equipment, Information Technology and In-Service Support (BAAINBw) for the delivery of a total of 71 protected mobile and recovery cranes worth around 150 million euros.

The order includes the delivery of 33 protected recovery crane vehicles with the type designation G-BKF and 38 G-LTM mobile cranes. A particular focus is on the protection of the crews: All vehicles are equipped with protected driver's cabs and protected crane cabins from Rheinmetall. Deliveries are expected to be completed by 2021.

The G-LTM commissioned by the Bundeswehr is a near-production four-axle mobile crane with a protected driver's cab and protected crane cabin. Its all-terrain chassis features the latest chassis and drive technology, ensuring excellent handling even on difficult terrain. A six-cylinder Liebherr diesel engine in the chassis, which produces 330 kW and a torque of 2,335 Nm, gives the G-LTM the necessary power. It has a 35.7 meter long telescopic boom and a recovery winch at the rear of the vehicle. The Bundeswehr's order volume includes 17 devices with 8.4 tons of counterweight, which are referred to as "heavy mobile crane vehicles" and 21 devices with 22.5 tons of counterweight, which are called "super-heavy mobile cranes".

The G-BKF from Liebherr is a protected recovery crane vehicle on a near-production four-axle mobile crane chassis. It is highly off-road and maneuverable. With two recovery winches and towing goggles at the rear of the vehicle, it is suitable for recovering and towing a variety of different vehicles such as the new generation of protected command and function vehicles (GFF), protected transport vehicles (GTF), MULTI FSA (swap loader vehicles) and those already in use wheeled vehicles located under the protection of the operating personnel. The G-BKF can be used flexibly and economically as it is equipped for both recovering vehicles and lifting loads. With a 20.9 meter long telescopic boom, the G-BKF can handle loads weighing up to 20 tons quickly and precisely.
