The current Fleet shorebased cranes support the following aircraft systems: AV-8, C-130, CH-53, V-22, E-6, P-3 and H-46. They are used for aircraft maintenance and component removal and replacement (engines, transmissions, propellers, rotor blades, etc.). The following are some of the requirements for the new mobile landbased HMC: The new HMC shall be a Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) or a modified COTS item.

As required for any typical Navy Support Equipment (SE), the new HMC shall be highly reliable, maintainable, and supportable. The new HMC shall be capable of meeting environmental, EMI, mobility requirements, and 3600 swing (slewing/rotating) criteria. Human factors engineering shall be utilized to the greatest extent possible to make the new HMC a ?user friendly? piece of SE.
