About the Humvee:
The Humvee seats 4 amongst an available fully enclosed metallic cabin amongst a vertical windshield. The trunk is constructed from lightweight together with rust-resistant aluminum, instead of conventional steel. It has all-wheel crusade amongst an independent pause together with helical gear-reduction hubs like to portal axles which attach towards the top rather than pump of each bicycle to allow the drivetrain shafts to endure raised for a amount xvi inwards (410 mm) of the world clearance. The trunk is mounted on a narrow steel frame amongst boxed rails together with 5 cross members for rigidity. The rails deed equally sliders to protect the drivetrain which is nestled betwixt together with inwards a higher house the rails. Raising the drivetrain into the cabin expanse together with lowering the seats into the frame creates a massive chest-high transmission hump which separates passengers on each side together with lowers the overall pump of gravity compared to nigh trucks where the trunk together with passengers are inwards a higher house the frame. The vehicle too has disc brakes on all 4 wheels, together with 4-wheel Portal axle double-wishbone suspension. The brake discs are non mounted at the wheels equally on conventional automobiles, but are inboard, attached to the exterior of each differential. The front end together with bring upwards differentials are Torsen type, together with the pump differential is a regular, lockable type. Torque-biasing differentials allows frontwards displace equally long equally at to the lowest degree ane bicycle has traction. It runs on specialized 37 × 12.5 radial tires amongst low-profile runflat devices. Newer HMMWV versions tin endure equipped amongst an optional key tire inflation organisation (CTIS) kit inwards the field. While it is optimized for off-road mobility, it tin crusade at highway speeds of 55 mph (89 km/h) at maximum weight amongst a top speed of seventy mph (110 km/h).
HMMWVs are good suited for air mobile operations equally they are transportable past times C-130 or larger fighting transports, droppable past times parachute, together with tin endure sling-loaded from helicopters, though at that spot are smaller vehicles such equally the Growler which were designed to tally into smaller arts and crafts such equally the V-22. In fighting conditions, the HMMWV tin endure delivered past times the Low Altitude Parachute Extraction System which pulls the vehicle out of the opened upwards bring upwards ramp merely inwards a higher house the the world without the aircraft having to land.
There are at to the lowest degree 17 variants of the HMMWV inwards service amongst the USA military. HMMWVs serve equally cargo/troop carriers, automatic weapons platforms, ambulances (four litter patients or 8 ambulatory patients), M220 TOW missile carriers, M119 howitzer prime number movers, M1097 Avenger Pedestal Mounted Stinger platforms, MRQ-12 straight off air back upwards vehicles, S250 shelter carriers, together with other roles. The HMMWV is capable of fording 2.5 ft (76 cm) normally, or 5 ft (1.5 m) amongst the deep-water fording kits installed.
The M1114 "up-armored" HMMWV, introduced inwards 1996, too features a like weapons mount. In addition, unopen to M1114 together with M1116 up-armored together with M1117 Armored Security Vehicle models characteristic a Common Remotely Operated Weapon Station (CROWS), which allows the gunner to locomote from within the vehicle, and/or the Boomerang anti-sniper detection system. Recent improvements conduct maintain too led to the evolution of the M1151 model, which rapidly rendered the previous models obsolete. By replacing the M1114, M1116, together with before armored HMMWV types amongst a unmarried model, the USA Army hopes to lower maintenance costs.
The latest iteration of the Humvee serial tin endure seen inwards the M1151A1 together with afterward up-armored A1-versions. It has a stronger pause together with larger 6.5 liter turbo-diesel engine to arrange the weight of upwards to 680 kg (1,500 lb) of additional armor. The armor protection tin endure installed or taken off depending on the operating environment, together with then the vehicles tin displace to a greater extent than efficiently without armor when at that spot is no threat of attack. There is unopen to underbody armor that moderately protects against mines together with roadside bombs. Other improvements include Vehicle Emergency Escape (VEE) windows that tin endure rapidly removed together with then troops within tin escape inwards the number of a rollover, jammed door, or the vehicle catching fire, together with a smash chimney that vents the forcefulness of a bomb smash upwards together with away from the occupants. The M1151A1 has a crew of four, tin bear 2,000 lb (910 kg) of payload, together with tin tow a 4,000 lb (1,800 kg) load. On roads, it has a top speed of lxxx km/h (50 mph) together with a attain of 480 km (300 mi).
