Family Of Hvy Tac Veh
Abstract
The Heavy Equipment Transporter System (HETS) is comprised of the M1070A1 Tractor and M1000 Trailer and is used to transport, recover, and evacuate a combat loaded M1 Series main battle tank, an M88, or similar heavy loads that are permitted for use on roads in US and overseas. The Enhanced Heavy Equipment Transporter System (EHETS) shall be capable of safely transporting current and future models of the heaviest tracked vehicles located within an Armored Brigade Combat Team (ABCT) in combat configuration with all current and projected mission attachments and survivability upgrades installed, with an additional 10% to allow for mud and ice build-up, and future growth of combat systems. The EHETS tractor/trailer will be capable of transporting ABRAMS SEPv2/3 with road permits and required force protection. FY2018 Project 659 Base funds in the amount of $0.900 million will be used to complete Enhanced Heavy Equipment Transporter System (EHETS) documentation and beginning Milestone efforts in preparation for Engineering Manufacturing Development (EMD) Phase.
