The military versions were classified as the SNL G152 medium tractor, under the G-numbers classification system used for army tractors.〔TM 9-2800 military vehicles catalogue〕 ==D6 Version history== The D6 started out in 1935 as the RD6, fitted with a 3-cylinder 45 hp D6600 engine. The numbering was changed to the D6 in 1937.〔Caterpillar Chronicle, by Eric C. Orlemann, pub by MBI, ISBN 0-7603-0667-2〕 Caterpillar first introduced the entirely new D6 in 1941 with the 4R & 5R series.
