Program Background • The Commercial High Performance Vehicle Industry faces many of the same challenges as the U.S. Military in developing and operating wheeled vehicles • A few of the areas of vehicle design and performance faced by both military designers and their civilian counterparts include: • Vehicle safety • Power train reliability/performance • Suspension • Braking system • High-strength/light weight materials • Fuel efficiency
Program Background (cont.) The objectivesof the MVHPC Program are: • Identify, analyze, and evaluate performance gaps, issues and concerns associated with Military tactical wheeled vehicles, • Identify technologies developed by the Motorsports Industry that show potential for resolving technical performance issues encountered by Military tactical wheeled vehicles - and - • Foster key relationships between Stakeholders and Subject Matter Experts within the Government, and representatives from the Motorsports Industryfor continued collaboration
Program Background (cont.) Our Government customer selected four tactical wheel vehicles for us to analyze. Those vehicles include: • HMMWV– High-Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle • ITV– Internally Transportable Vehicle • MTVR– Medium Tactical Vehicle Replacement • LVSR– Logistics Vehicle System Replacement
