U.S. Steering system Power-assisted, front axle (third axle contra-steer on MK31 tractor) The Medium Tactical Vehicle Replacement ( MTVR) is a series of vehicles, based on a common that vary by payload and mission requirements. The MTVR is a purpose-designed military vehicle, although a small number of vehicles have been sold commercially for specialized operations such as wildfire fighting. There were originally four MTVR variants, this increasing to seven, and then nine variants (plus a sub-variant) as deliveries and development continued. A dedicated trailer and prototype/developmental MTVRs have also been produced. The first MTVRs were delivered in late 1999.
The MTVR is the ’ equivalent of the ’s (FMTV). The Marines do not use the FMTV; the Army does not use the MTVR. The MTVR was designed and is manufactured.
In 2003 the UK became the first export customer for the MTVR, ordering 218 CSTs (fuel); 82 TARs (shown here)) and 48 CSTs (water) Prototype and developmental MTVRs. Two each of 6×6 and 8×8 prototypes with Hiab load handling systems have been built. The 6×6 chassis are 9/14 ton (8,165/12,701 kg) on-/off-road rated, while the two 8×8 prototypes are rated at 16.5 tons (14,967 kg) and 15,000 kg payload. Both 8×8 chassis are fitted with a tridem rear axle layout, the rear axles (of which axles three and four steer) sprung hydraulically.
Two 4×4 variants have been developed, the Short Bed Cargo Truck and Lightweight Cargo Truck. The Short Bed Cargo Truck has a high degree of commonality with the 6x6 MTVR, while the Lightweight truck is aimed at the opposite end of the payload/capability scale, this variant being fitted with beam-type axles and a simpler (front) and airbag (rear) suspension set-up. A four-door crew-cab option is available for longer wheelbase chassis. A European-friendly forward control (with the engine mounted behind the cab) variant of the MTVR, designated as Z Series, has been built. In July 2005, Oshkosh was awarded a five-month contract from the Office of Naval Research for the first phase of a four-phase project to develop an MTVR with a 60 kW on-board power generating capability.
Together with a selection of industry partners, Oshkosh has developed the MTVR-based, an autonomous vehicle equipped with an extensive array of sensors, cameras and navigational computers. The is based on the MTVR. In October 2007 Ideal Innovations Inc., Oshkosh Truck Corporation, and Inc. Announced that they had delivered Category I and Category II II vehicles to the US Army for further service evaluation. Ultimately no orders for any MRAP II vehicles were placed Operators and details.

A further 15 MK27 chassis were delivered during 2005, and during October 2006 a further 40 MK27 chassis were delivered. Initial deliveries (2004/2005) are fitted with medium recovery equipment supplied by Eyal of Israel, while the October 2006 delivery are fitted out as ammunition transporter vehicles to operate alongside the Hellenic Army's Leopard MBTs.
