US M-ATV MRAP Vehicle 1/16 Trumpeter

 

The Oshkosh M-ATV is a Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicle developed for the 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 30mph even if two tires lose pressure. The vehicle can also take a 7.62mm 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.

Trumpeter often recommends using Tamiya X and XF paints – click here to purchase!
