During the development and production of the German tank A7V was started to develop a supply vehicle and a tractor for artillery armament, which was to use the platform of this tank. The planned order from Daimler in Marienfelde was 100 chassis. 22 sets were used for tanks (20 pieces A7V plus 2 pieces replaced for repaired A7V). The rest was to be used for supply Überlandwageny. The load capacity of the machine was around 3-4 tons. They were mostly used to transport ammunition and various materials intended for front units. Towing artillery weapons was also tested.
The first machines were created at the end of 1917 and by the end of the First World War, a little more than 30 pieces were to be produced (older sources say higher numbers, such as 75/78 pieces - the rest of the ordered 100 pieces of chassis). The machines were to operate in so-called supply columns Armeekraftwagenkolonnen. The original intention was to equip these machines with supply units Armeekraftwagenkolonnen AKK (R) 1111-1122 (except AKK (R) 1116 - they were to be equipped with Orionwagen). However, these machines received only AKK (R) 1111 and AKK (R) 1122.
An anti-aircraft vehicle A7V Überlanwagen als Selbstfahrlafette für zwei 7,62cm kanonen was created on the platform A7V Überlandwagen. In one copy, a special trench depth A7V Schützengrabenbagger was created on the A7V platform.

I must confess that I had no idea that such a supply conversion had even been created. Anyway, you can clearly see the size of the engine, which is located under the driver. I have to say, I had imagined it to be bigger...
