What is The Main Difference M-ATV vs JLTV ?

In today’s session, we will discuss the main difference between M-ATV vs JLTV?. Which one is better transportable oshkosh truck between JLTV vs MATV It is probably known that JLTVs are the light-duty alternatives to the M-ATVs. One of the main reasons to say so is that JLTVs are more adjustable. Therefore, these vehicles are better transportable by air, land, and sea. At the same time, the lighter weight pattern also greatly helps in achieving high-end transportation capabilities. On the other hand, M-ATVs are also portable, but they are likely to be a little heavier than JLTVs. For this reason, they probably would need better storage and space compared to JLTVs. The average weight of MRAP All Terrain Vehicle ( M-ATV) is around 18 tons, whereas
JLTV military vehicle are lighter with only 11 tons. Talking about enhanced ranges, both JLTV vs M-ATV can provide an average of 400 operational miles,

The size difference of JLTV vs MATV is not that big. That is the reason. The JLTV is in the same category (light tactical vehicles) as the Humvee, and yet the JLTV looks massive compared to the Humvee. Did you know the JLTV weighs more than twice the Humvee? So it's therefore reasonable to compare the JLTV to MATV.

[@jaypenha5352]

I can say this from personal experience. In Afghanistan, my cavalry scout platoon supported special operations forces using these vehicles. We traded in our MRAP vehicles for these and these are much more mobile off-road with the same amount of armor as an MRAP RG-31. I saw one of these take a command detonated IED straight underneath it, flipped over on its side, and still protect every single soldier in that vehicle, including my fellow soldier who was a groomsmen at my wedding 7 years later. These vehicles save soldier lives and I thank the engineers who invented these things. They truly had the soldiers well-being and comfort in mind when they designed it.

[@Elonthrust]

This isn't quite true. The MATV is nowhere near as safe as the MRAP family of vehicles (RG-31, RG-33, Husky, MAXPRO, and Buffalo) Engineer Route Clarence packages weren't authorized to use the MATV because of insufficient V-hull designs on the bottom. I will agree the MATV is faster and more agile, but to claim they're just as safe isn't true at all. MATV can take smaller IED blasts but anything larger than 75lb would likely cause significant damage to the vehicles hull followed by explosive breaching of the crew compartments.

J-LTV is taking humvee and beefing it up to survive ied and ambush while having mobility of humvee while MAT-V is miniaturizing MRAP vehicles to make it more stable and have mobility more than MRAP vehicles. Just as MAT-V is a better version of the commercial of the shelf MRAP vehicles, J-LTV is the improved version of MAT-V.

[@robertkb64]

The most important thing you forgot: mean time between failure. During the competition that led to the JLTV the winner went something like 4 times as long between failures as the #2 competitor did. In war, having your equipment actually work and be available to you in the field is far more important than having the “best” vehicle stuck on a lift in the mechanics pool. I’d rather have a 25 year old Toyota pickup with the new VAMPIRE rocket system in the bed than a battalion of Abrams a dozen miles away (and the technical has AC too!). Same reason we prefer artillery fire support over Air Force (anything). You know the artillery will be in range (or they wouldn’t be assigned), while that plane could be hundreds of miles away when you need ordnance on the ground in 90 seconds (howitzers are a good middle ground, they should be in range, but can still move pretty quickly if needed). So unless you’re willing to outspend your opponent by many orders of magnitude you can’t never afford to give the greatest tools to everyone who might make use of them, and the JLTV is an upgrade over even the MRAP under almost all circumstances…. And since they cost less than half what an MRAP does you can buy they two for one and gain redundancy too!

I saw real MRAPs in action and the M-ATV nor the J-LTVs come even close to the protection provided by the Caimans, RG-31s, 33s, MaxPros, or Cougars. I saw those vehicles take IEDs that ranged from 300lbs to 1000lbs and the occupants still survived. Saw a Buffalo take a 1500lbs IED, everyone inside survived, but the gunner died from the over pressure, and saw an RG-31 get ripped in half by a 1800lbs IED. Only 2 Soldiers survived that, but there wasn’t much of them left, and we pumped them with morphine to ease their pain until they passed. But I saw M-ATVs getting penetrated by 40lbs IEDs when they first got in country and Army commanders pulled them off the roads until they developed an upgraded armor kit for it, which we used for our next deployment to Afghanistan. They couldn’t handle anything more than 300lbs and even that was suspect, because we got reports of them still getting penetrated by lesser IEDs. IMO, the best MRAP was the 4x4 Cougar with the independent suspensions. You could go anywhere off road and still take large IEDs.

With the military reconfiguring to Eastern Europe and Asian theater combat planning, the MRAPS don't fit it with the fast assault plans. MRAPS are better suited to occupational roles against insurgents, not open direct near peer conflict. They're too slow for the light armor they posses.

@@Buck123four how? How much more weight do you think it would add? The MaxxPRO MRAP is at most 14.5 tons. The Russiams have a 4x4 MRAP that has 2+8 seats and is 13.7 tons heavy. How much weight do you think would be added to the JLTV by extending the roof and sides by less than 2 meters to add two more seats? i'm willing to bet it's far less than some of the bullshit "modules" weigh that are envisioned for it to carry in that segment.

@@MatoVuc How much more? Mebbe about 1,500 pounds + / -. But a CRITICAL requirement for JLTV is external air transport by CH47 to X distance. Every pound counts. Ask Oshkosh Truck Co. if ya don't believe me. Ciao.

Size and weight is the only difference I think
