MANPRINT Evaluation of the High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle-Heavy Variant (HMMWV-HV)
Abstract
This report presents the results of a MANPRINT (Manpower and Personnel Integration) evaluation of the High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle--Heavy Variant (HMMWV-HV). The evaluation was conducted by the Army Research Institute for the Behavioral and Social Sciences in conjunction with operational assessment of the HMMWV-HV by the U.S. Army Operational Test and Evaluation Agency (OTEA). Three configurations were examined: the maxi- ambulance, the mini-ambulance, and the S-250 communications shelter. Realistic missions were simulated in a field setting over a variety of terrains, and critical incidents and system operations problems were recorded as they occurred. These data were supplemented with interview and questionnaire data. Fifty-eight areas in which system improvements may be warrented are identified. Nine of the areas involve training; five involve maintenance; 20 involve human factors and operations; and 24 involve systems safety and health hazards.
