i have a european B licence
which means i can drive anything up to 3.5 ton
or drive a car, and tow a trailer up to 750 kg
to tow anything heavier, i need a B+E licence, which i'm doing this summer so i can go pickup car projects and such
to drive anything above 3.5 ton, i need a C truck licence...

In the US you need a CDL (commercial driving license) for anything over 23500 lbs combined truck alone or with trailer. CDL requirements are very strict. Still 12 tons is a lot to haul with just a regular license and no special training.
