Section I. INTRODUCTION

1. Scope

a. This manual covers the Army military vehicles for which the Ordnance Corps has the responsibility of storage and issue. Chassis that the Ordnance Corps supplies to other technical services for mounting bodies and special equipment peculiar to those services are also included.

b. A halftone illustration and dimensioned line sketch of each vehicle is shown, followed- by tabulated data. These data include classification, purpose, characteristics, and performance of each vehicle. Data and illustrations have been obtained from the most reliable sources available at time of publication. These sources include vehicle manufacturers and responsible agencies of the Ordnance Corps. Further information is given in the technical manuals and supply catalogs listed for each vehicle.

c. Section II contains the vehicles arranged alphabetically. Within the alphabetical asrange- ment, the transport vehicles are listed by increasing capacities and the combat vehicles sre listed by increasing caliber of the major armament. In the index, however, the vehicles are grouped by types.

d. Materiel which has been declared obsolete since publication of the superseded edition, 27 October 1947, has not been included in the revision.

e. The appendix contains a list of references to other pertinent publications.

P. Explanation of Terminology

a. Chsifidion. Vehicles are classified from the standpoint of suitability for use as follows:

(1)

(4

Standard. Standard vehicles are the most advanced and satisfactory that have been adopted, and are those which are preferred for procurement.

Substitute standard. Subgtitute standard vehicles are those that do not have as satisfactory military characteristics as standard vehicles, but are usable sub- stitutes for standard vehicles and, when necessary, may be procured to supple- ment the supply of standard vehicles.

(3)

(4)

b. Technical Data.

Limited standard. Limited standard vehicles are those that do not have as satisfactory military characteristics as standard vehicles, but are usable substi- tutes for standard vehicles, and are either in use or available for issue to meet supply demands. Complete vehicles will not be procured, but component parts, even though they may be limited-procurement articles, may be procured if necessary to maintain these vehicles in serviceable condition through- out a reasonable life expectancy.

Nonclassifid. Vehicles to which no classification is assigned.

(1)

(2)

(3)

(4)

Wheels. Where such data as 6 x 4 and 4 x 4 appear in vehicular nomen- clature, the first figure indicates total number of wheels, and the second figure indicates number of driving wheels. Dual wheels are considered as one wheel.

Net weight. Weight 4f fully equipped vehicle in operating condition with fuel, lubricants, and water, but without crew or payload, unless otherwise specified.

Note. It is emphasized that weights given in this manual are for tactical we only, and are not intended as official shipping weights for we in shipment by commercial carriers, due to variations between vehicles, variations result- ing from changes in stowage, etc. Official vehicular shipping weights are contained In TB9-OSSC-G.

Payload. Weight of cargo or passengers, including crew, which may be safely imposed on vehicle.

On-highway payload.

(a) Permissible payload for a tactical transport vehicle operated on high- ways only is based upon the maximum load capacity of the vehicles tires.

Caution: Payload and maximum gross weight for unrestricted operation will not exceed those shown on the vehicle data plate.

(b) Tactical vehicles for which the permis- AN/ARC-3 Radio Set sible on-highway loading is not given AN/CRC3 Radio Set

in this manual, nor on the vehicle data AN/GRC-4 Radio Set

plate, will be reported by the using ANIGRGS Radio Set ANIGRC-6 Radio Set

operation, including crew, plus maximum allowable payload of cargo or passengers.

Shipping dimensions. Minimum dimensions to which a completely assembled vehicle may be reduced by lowering cab, top, or windshield, removing body bows, gun mounts, etc. Ground clearance. Minimum clearance under lowest point of chassis.

Computed grade ability. The grade

(slope), measured in percent, that a vehicle will ascend with given load and in specified gear or range, as calculated by standard formula. Percent of grade is defined ae the ratio between the vertical rise and the horizontal distance traveled, expressed in percent. Examples of grades measured in terms of degree of angle and percent follow:

(12) Communications equipment. The type which are divided into tactical and administratiue numbers of communications equipment vehicles. Further groupings are general-purpose listed for combat vehicles have the fol- vehicles, speciakpuipment vehides, special-purpose lowing meanings : vehicles, combat vehicles, trailers, and semitrailers.

4. Respomiibility

For each type of vehicle stored and issued by each teehnieal service and the Air Force, the technical service responsible for design end development; preparation of specifications; pur- chase and ~s~ection (in~u~mg spare parts); storage and issue of spsre parts for orgrmizational, field, and depot maintenance; and performance of depot maintenance is given in SR 700-110-1 (AFR 65-17).

6. Excessive Weights and ~me~~ons

The weights and dimensions of some vehicles included in this manual exceed the permissible limits given in AR 709-105. SR 700-105-10 lists these vehicles and explains wherein they exceed the limit&ions.

6. Winterizxtion and Deep-Water Fording Kits

a. Winterization kits available for vehicles are listed in SB 9-16.

5. Deep-water fording kits rsvailrsble for vehicles are listed in TM 9-2853.

7. Different Voltages

The commercial-type vehicles and the older tactical vehicles have &volt electrical systems. Many of the newer tact&$ vehicles have 24-volt electrieaf systems. There are also some vehicles with la-volt electrical systems. Damage is al- most certain to result from connecting the elee- trical systems of two or more vehicfes, such as trucks and trailers, having different voltages. Therefore, using organizations are cautioned against connecting the electrical systems of vehicles having different voltages, unless one vehicle has been modified to accomodste the voltage of the other.
