1. Capabilities of the SEE
a. The SEE is a highly mobile all wheel drive diesel engine driven tractor equipped with a rear mounted
backhoe, a front mounted bucket, and portable hand held auxiliary hydraulic tools such as a pavement
breaker, rock drill, and a chain saw.
b. The SEE Tractor is used to rapidly excavate small combat positions such as TOW, Machine gun and
