Crawler Transporter 2 (CT-2) has completed all of the necessary modifications to upgrade it to Super Crawler status. The new Super Crawler is now set to roll out of the VAB on 21 March 2016 ahead of a series of performance tests to validate the transporter’s readiness to handle the massive load of the SLS rocket it will be tasked with ferrying to Pad-39B at Kennedy in 2018.
