Two USMC ITV Growlers! LSV 262 (M1161) and M1163 (PM 97)

Two USMC ITV Growlers playing around on a dirt road in Southern California! I was down working at Greg's shop (Rasmussen Equipment) in Murrieta last week. This video was taken on June 16th. it was a hot day in the shop so we decided to take a break in the evening and go play a little. Too bad I didn't get a video of me almost getting my ITV stuck! I went to turn around off the side of the road and it was steeper than I had thought. I couldn't really see it because of the tall weeds. I was able to get it out without having to suffer the humiliation of using the winch or having Greg yank me out. Make sure you go over and subscribe to Greg's channel and check out all of his ITV videos! he puts out videos regularly so hit the bell on his page so you get notified and don't miss one.

The long-wheelbase version is known as the LSV (Light Strike Variant). Its military designation is M1161. This variant originally came with a machine gun turret that was removed during the de-mil process. The short wheelbase version is the PM (Prime Mover). Its military designation is M1163. This variant was designed to tow the EFSS (Expeditionary Fire Support System) 120mm mortar. It was also called Dragon Fire. You can read more about this system here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon_...) The M1163 also towed the Ammunition Trailer that could haul 33 of the 120mm mortar rounds. That trailers military designation is M1164. These vehicles, along with their towed payload, were designed to be transported internally by the MV-22 Osprey tilt-rotor aircraft. The program lasted 10 years from 2007-2017. The contract was originally intended to last ten years with a possibility of renewal but, ultimately, the program ended as planned in 2017. The ITV's were auctioned off via Govplanet.com. Most are now in civilian hands, some ending up overseas in places like Germany, New Zealand, Italy, and one soon going to France. There is a lot of incorrect information about these vehicles floating around out there so take what you find on the internet with a grain of salt!
