Description:
Truck, Cargo-Utility, 3/4 Ton, 4X2 is a commercial four-door, six passenger cargo truck which equips our forces with a two-wheel-drive
automatic transmission vehicle. This vehicle is operated on a base where off-highway, four wheel drive capability is not required. It permits
crews and cargo to travel together to assigned work-sites. It is used in direct support of weapons systems such as missiles, strategic aircraft and
tactical fighter aircraft. For the Air National Guard, this vehicle is used for aircraft sorties generation and sortie containment on a daily basis.
The vehicles support Flightline Maintenance Crews and their equipment, Aerial Ports and Flight line expedite functions along with Base Supply
and Civil Engineering. For HQ AMC, this vehicle is the most versatile asset, utilized by almost every discipline. It is mission essential for
Explosive Ordinance Disposal (EOD) and Security Forces Combat Arms Training (CATM). This vehicle is ideal for the Medical
Bio-environmental personnel whose teams of 4-6 personnel are transported to inspection sites as one unit. For HQ USAFE, this vehicle provide
intra-base and theater movement of personnel and cargo operating over a million miles per year supporting USAF, EUCOM and USAFE
operational taskings. These vehicles are critical to the support of all facets of base support including Civil Engineering, Supply and
Transportation. Failure to fund sufficient quantities of this vehicle would mean inadequate support for many diverse base operations.
