CTRL Government Solutions: Army

The UL101 was originally designed for the U.S. military and designated in the Sets, Kits, and Outfits (SKO) for wheel and track vehicles. The UL101 has been used for many years to reduce time for troubleshooting, diagnosing, and to minimize erroneous parts swapping.

Aberdeen Proving Grounds located in Maryland, USA identified numerous applications and trained personnel in the use and operation of the UL101.
