In the middle of 1948, a new tractor factory was built on the site of
the disassembled
Brennabor AG plant in Brandenburg an der Havel.
Production started in 1949 with the IFA RS 03/30 Aktivist – a 30 hp
standard
tractor with a frameless block design. A total of 3761
tractors in this Aktivist series were produced between 1949 and 1952.
One of
the most striking features of the RS/03 Aktivist was its
unusually high design and its unconventional 2-cylinder V-type engine,
whose cylinder
heads protruded from the left and right sides
under the bonnet. It was based on a wood gas tractor from Ohrenstein &
Koppel, which was developed at the end of the 1930s. Its
successor – the IFA RS04/30 – was produced from 1954 and was East
Germany’s first tractor that was not based on a pre-war model.
