Introducing the Most Advanced CH-47 Internally Air Transportable Tactical Utility Vehicle. 

The Flyer® 72 Tactical Utility Vehicle (TUV) is an open cargo deck vehicle that is capable of supporting multiple mission kits. The TUV shares the same based design 90% component commonality with our USSOCOM’s M1288 GMV 1.1 and Army’s M1297 AGMV vehicles. The TUV can be used as a kit modification for either the M1288 or M1297 vehicles.

The TUV’s open cargo deck (69” wide X 83” long), combined with below deck and external storage compartments, provide 102 cubic feet of cargo space – unprecedented payload volume for this class of vehicle.

An Industry-first  Curb Weight to Payload Ratio Greater than 1:1while Retaining the Same Mobility

More Payload and Modular Configurations than Any Vehicle in it’s Class

With a payload capacity of 6000 Lb. (>2700 Kg), the Flyer® 72 TUV offers an industry-first payload ratio greater than 1:1 (curb weight to payload), while retaining the same mobility, maneuverability and reliability of the GMV 1.1 and Army GMV variants.

  • The most options for payload and modular kits than any vehicle in it’s class

  • Internally & externally transported by CH-47/53 Helicopters and C-130 aircraft

  • Shared design and performance of the M1288 GMV 1.1 and M1297 AGMV Vehicles
  • Multiple weapon systems from 7.62mm to .50 cal weapon capacity on manned or remote weapons station

  • Weapon side mounts on doors and rear deck
  • Provides national strategic airlift options, nearly twice the amount of vehicles per flight on C-17 with more than double the soldiers per flight
  • Sealable armor for increased crew protection
