HYEX TRANSPORTABILITY INSTRUCTIONS
HYEX TRANSPORTABILITY INSTRUCTIONS.
The HYEX can be transported via highway, rail, marine, C-5, and C-17 air transport and meets all weight and
dimensional requirements while in its standard configuration with no reduction or sectionalization required.
TRANSPORTABILITY RELATED PUBLICATIONS.
Additional information on transport procedures can be found in:
1. TB 9-2300-281-35, Standards for Overseas Shipment or Domestic Issue of Special Purpose Vehicles
2. TM 38-250/AFR 71-4, Preparation of Hazardous Materials for Military Air Shipment WP 0094.
TRANSPORTABILITY RELATED DEFINITIONS.
Technical terms that may be helpful while preparing the HYEX for transportation are:
1. Center of Gravity (CG). The balance point of a suspended item. The HYEX counterweight is used to shift
CG to the rear.
2. Curb Weight (CW). Total weight of operational HYEX including fuel, all system fluids, and on-vehicle Basic
Issue Items (BII). CW does not include crew weight, which in this case, is less than one percent of the gross
vehicle weight.
3. Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW). CW plus payload. For transport purposes, there is no payload. Therefore, the
GVW equals the CW.
MILITARY LOAD CLASSIFICATION.
The Military Load Classifications (MLC) for the HYEX are as follows:
1. HYEX Standard Cab System - MLC 32
2. HYEX Armored Cab System - MLC 34
