While developing the tool we gathered input from the U.S. Army, Marines and the Texas National Guard. Face-to-face meetings and actual use on vehicles like the HEMTT, LHS and the M88 Hercules revealed that the tool could perform every task it encountered with ease. During testing with the Texas National Guard, veteran personnel stated that using the standard issue HEMTT tools took 80 % longer to remove and replace wheel lug nuts than with the tool.
With the abundant availability of NATO slave receptacles in the field,
the tool can be used anywhere vehicles are present.
Testing performed at Ft. Hood, TX resulted in the issue of a "Letter of Justification" or LOJ from the U.S. Army stating that "the tool is a must have" for wheeled and tracked vehicles.
