    M1161/M1163/M1164(trailer) Documents

    What are the ITVs called?

    Interesting short conversation with a grunt at the airport gate. It went something like this: •Did you see or use the M1161 or 63? It looks like a 2 or 4-seat boxy Jeep for air transport. "Not sure. Did it have carry trays on each end?" •Yes, it could. Packed an MG mount, or a short one for...
