This is an interesting collection of pics but it did lead me to a question. Can the JLTV act as the prime mover for the M-777?
If it can then that would be huge for advocates of the "aviation centric" Marine Corps.
Don't get me wrong. Maintenance alone dooms that concept to the trash bin of history but using the JLTV as prime mover would allow the excellent MTVR to act in a pure logistics role.
That should shore up logistics tremendously. The off road mobility combined with its load carrying should help simplify things from the ground side. As far as aviation is concerned I remain unconvinced that they will ever be able to successfully resupply a large force in the field.
