Eagle eTT-8 AWD Electric Aircraft Tug - 8,000 lbs DBP

The next generation of Eagle tugs is here. The AWD electric eTT-8 is designed specifically for use at regional airlines, corporate flight departments, fix based operators (FBOs), and military operations. The new eTT-8 features All-Wheel Drive (AWD) for traction in all weather conditions, hitch site tunnels in the front and back, and unmatched reliability and performance. The eTT series is further advanced with all wheel steering for better maneuverability. This unit is also powered by an environmentally-friendly 80V A/C electric drive.

The eTT-8 electric aircraft tug was designed to maximize battery life, to keep it working for you when you need it. The energy-efficient A/C electric drive provides regenerative braking that sends power back in to the battery every time it slows down. It is further equipped with energy-efficient components, such as LED lighting, that minimize the power draw on the electrical system. When you team its efficient drive train with an optional "Smart Charge", high-capacity battery and charger, the eTT-8 will handle the toughest workloads.
