==Description==
A Heavy Transport is a generic catchall name for a group of wheeled trucks used to carry freight for both military and civilian purposes.  Massing between 15 to 25 tons and capable of on-road speeds of up to 90 km/h, heavy transports can range from simple vans to tractor-trailers.  Military versions for these trucks, such as the 20-ton '''Heavy Transport B1''',  are also armed with some type of weapon, which are either mounted on the front of the vehicle and fired by the driver or atop it (usually mounted on a turret) with a second crewman serving as gunner.<ref name=MW>''MechWarrior RPG'', p. 59</ref><ref name=RSV5>''Record Sheets Volume Five: Vehicles'', "Heavy Transport B1</ref>
