03 June 2003: "Bulldozer buffs"

I've noticed that I've had some visitors who arrived at this blog looking for info on Caterpillar D9 bulldozers. Let me make it easy on you.
On Caterpillar's website, you can find the civilian versions of the D9R, and also the D10R. But what you're probably really looking for is the versions used by the Israeli Defence Force, and for that I should direct you to the appropriate page at Israeli-weapons.com.

Actually, the Caterpillar pages give the full technical data; the distinguishing feature of the IDF versions is that they have between 5 and 6 metric tons of armour bolted on. And they're painted olive rather than yellow. That's it really,
