The Mack Model RM6866RS heavy truck was produced in Australia for the Australian Army as the Truck, Cargo, Heavy, or the MC3. It is a version of the US Mack R-series. Prototypes of this military truck were built in Australia in 1978. An order was placed in 1981 for a total of 906 vehicles. Deliveries to the Australian Army commenced in 1982 and all of these were delivered by 1986. In 1988, a further 19 trucks were delivered, bringing the total to 925 of all variants. In the mid-1990s the whole Australian Army's Mack MC3 fleet was upgraded for continued use. The Mack MC3 is still in service with the Australian Army, however it is now obsolete and due to be replaced with a modern military truck.





This military truck has a conventional layout. A baseline variant has a payload capacity of 8 000 kg. A standard troop/cargo body can be covered with bows and tarpaulin. It can transport 26 fully-equipped troops in the cargo body. Twistlocks have been retrofitted on some variants, to enable transport of the containers. This military truck also tows various types of trailers.


The Mack MC3 has a prominent bonneted cab, which has seating for the driver and one passenger. Many of the Mack MC3 components and subassemblies were produced in Australia. Vehicle is powered by a Mack EM6-285 Maxidyne turbocharged diesel engine, developing 283 hp. This military truck has a full-time all-wheel drive. Some vehicles were fitted with self-recovery winches.
