Case, Ford, IH and Minneapolis built tug and tow vehicles for aircraft servicing and base maintenance. Case built magnetos for aircraft engines. Cat, Clark, Cletrac and ATC produced small crawlers that could be air dropped for building landing strips and bases at remote sites. Also tracked gun carrier mounts for artillary pieces. Ford built engines for tanks and also built B-24 bombers. IHC built rifles, Case made gun carriages and artillary gun barrels.
