The new Oshkosh Wheeled Tankers, designed for
the UK Ministry of Defence and available in the United States,
are the highest performance
tactical tanker family in the world. The 3960-gallon
Tactical Aircraft Refueller, 5280-gallon Close Support
Tankers and 4755-gallon Close Support Tankers for Water
are all towed by the 6 x 6 MTVR Tractor. The tractor is based on
the combat proven MTVR which has been deployed in Iraq and
Afghanistan. These modern marvels provide
unmatched reliability, proven rugged performance and
remarkable maneuverability to significantly expand on-
and off-road supply capabilities.
With TAK-4 independent suspension,
central tire inflation, all-wheel drive, and rear steer, this tractor
model is derived from the vehicle considered by many to be the most mobile military
truck in the world. That mobility greatly enhances the
flexibility of deployed forces. In addition, Oshkosh's
tractor and tanker-trailer combination is transportable
by tactical aircraft to facilitate quick, efficient deployment
to support troops worldwide.
