Military Unit Tactical Truck (MUTT) was the principal combat jeep and played an active part in American military operations well into the 1980s when it was phased out in favor of the HMMWV. During its tenure, the MUTT provided some distinct advantages to its successor in that it was small enough to fit inside a CH-53 heavy transport helicopter. This was also one of the main reasons the U.S. Marine Corp deployed the M151 as a Fast Attack Vehicle (FAV) in various configurations up until 1999.

This vehicle was on display in the military section of the museum, but here you can see it leaving. All of the vehicles change so you don't want to wait too long to visit.
