Trumpeter - 1/72 US M1240 M-ATV Mraf
The Oshkosh M-ATV is an Mine Resistant Ambush ProtectedMRAP vehicle developed by the Oshkosh Corporation of Oshkosh,Wisconsin for the Mrap All Terrain Vehicle M-ATV program. It is designed to provide the same levels of protection as the larger and heavier previous MRAPs but with improved mobility and it is intended to replace M1114 HMMWVs.
The M-ATV utilizes the Medium Tactical Vehicle Replacement MTVR chassis and TAK-4 suspension with the Plasan designed armored hull developed for the Northrop Grumman/Oshkosh Jltv Technology Development TD phase proposal. The V-shaped Plasan armored hull offers protection for the occupants from Ied attacks while a central tire inflation system CTIS and run-flat inserts allow the M-ATV to travel at least 30 miles at 30 mph even if two tires lose pressure. The vehicle can also take a 7.62 mm round to its engine oil/coolant/hydraulic system and continue to drive for at least one kilometer. The Stat-X engine fire suppression system provides for further survivability.
