At what speed can the MTVR manage a side slope of 30 percent?

The Medium Tactical Vehicle Replacement (MTVR) is designed to handle various terrains, including significant side slopes. In terms of its capability, the MTVR can manage a side slope of 30 percent safely at a speed of 5 mph. This speed is crucial because navigating side slopes requires careful control and stability to prevent rollovers. Operating at this moderate speed allows the vehicle to maintain traction and maneuverability, ensuring that it can safely traverse challenging inclines without jeopardizing the safety of the vehicle and personnel. Generally, as the grade increases or as speed rises, the risk of instability increases, which is why maintaining a lower speed on steep side slopes is essential for safe operation.
