Members of the 22nd Marine Operational Test and Evaluation Squadron carefully guide the drivers of the new Phantom Badger tactical vehicle into the tight space of the MV-22 Osprey tiltrotor aircraft during a fit test, Sept. 26, 2014. The vehicle has four-wheel drive and comes with four-wheel steering. This gives the vehicle the power to make extremely tight maneuvers, proven by its 24-foot turn radius. It is six inches narrower than a Mini Cooper, gets 21 miles to the gallon and can travel at speeds up to 80 miles per hour. This vehicle was designed to be loaded and unloaded quickly from an MV-22 Osprey tiltrotor aircraft. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl. Michelle M. Reif / Released)
