Multiple Choice

The M777A2 howitzer weighs ________ pounds without basic issue items, with HyPAK.

The weight figure being tested is the published weight of the M777A2 when HyPAK is installed but basic issue items are not included. With the HyPAK in place and BII (basic issue items) excluded, the system weighs 9,880 pounds. This configuration-specific weight is used for transport planning and handling, and it reflects the HyPAK’s added mass without loading the weapon with all attachements and issue spares. The other numbers correspond to different configurations (with or without HyPAK, with BII, or with extra gear), so they don’t match this particular setup.
