ESCORTS F15 Fighter
Pros
- Higher lifting capacity (15 T) compared to many similarly sized cranes.
- 4WD with 10 forward + 2 reverse gears for better terrain capability and maneuverability.
- Turbocharged, water‑cooled engine with ECU management enhancing efficiency and reliability.
ESCORTS RT 20
Pros
- High lifting capacity: 22 t @ 3 m is strong for a rough‑terrain crane in this class (good for construction and infrastructure).
- Long reach: Up ~21.2 m boom provides good lifting height and reach
- Rough terrain mobility: 4×4 drive + multiple steering modes (2WD, 4WD, crab, etc.) helps manoeuvre in tough ground conditions.
