Marines with the 22nd Operational Test and Evaluation Squadron look over the Phantom Badger, a new high-performance tactical vehicle made by Boeing to replace the M1161 Internally Transportable Vehicle, before performing a fit check on the vehicle, 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)
