The aerial work platform (AWP) - also known as an elevating work platform (EWP), boom truck or bucket truck - is a simple vehicle used for flexible access purposes. They are temporary mobile platforms generally used for maintenance and construction work, which distinguishes them from permanent access equipment such as elevators or cranes. Sometimes they are used by emergency personnel (such as firefighters) and most often are designed for limited lifting weights (typically less than one ton), although some
boom trucks have a higher safe working load. This type of Boom Lift Truck is an integral part of the construction fleets aboard the SDF-1 Macross. It includes not only a basket for lifting workers, but also a strong manipulator on the boom bucket for grappling/moving large objects.
