Abstract

The U.S. Army Defense Ammunition Center (DAC), Validation Engineering Division (SMAAC-DEV), was tasked to conduct a First Article Test (FAT) on the Medium Tactical Vehicle Replacement (MTVR) Vehicles by the U.S. Army Tank-automotive and Armaments Command (TACOM). The test vehicles were the 'Truck, Cargo, 7-ton w/Winch' (Model MK-25) and the 'Truck, Cargo, 7-ton, XLWB, w/o Winch' (Model MK-27) manufactured by Oshkosh Truck Corporation, Oshkosh, WI. The Truck, Cargo, 7-ton w/Winch (Model MK-25) and the Truck, Cargo, 7-ton, XLWB, w/o Winch (Model MK-27) were tested in accordance with TP-94-01, 'Transportability Testing Procedures'. The satisfactory performance of the Truck, Cargo, 7-ton w/Winch (Model MK-25) and the Truck, Cargo, 7-ton, XLWB, w/o Winch (Model MK-27) during testing has demonstrated that they are adequate to transport up to 7 tons of ammunition by all surface modes and up to 15 tons of ammunition during on-road transport.
