Popis: The article discusses topics related to the research of air transport susceptibility of military vehicles. This type of research is carried out in the Vehicle Research Laboratory at the Military Institute of Armoured and Automotive Technology in Sulejówek. The authors undertook a review of normative documents in the field of air transportability of military vehicles. On the basis of the review, an analysis of the current technical requirements in the aspect of the strength of transport nodes was made. The results of the analysis of documents are presented in the form of a transparent table. The article presents the problem of strength tests of transport nodes. The authors also presented the test method, which is accredited by the Military Centre for Standardization, Quality and Codification. The article presents the results of preliminary tests of transport hooks carried out for the Honker vehicle and the results of tests of transport catches of the Heavy Wheeled Evacuation and Technical Rescue Vehicle (CKPEiRT) developed at ROSOMAK SA CKPEiRT is an 8x8 vehicle with high payload, increased mobility, intended primarily for the evacuation of ROSOMAK wheeled armored personnel carriers. The CKPEiRT vehicle is characterized by an armoured cabin and the possibility of transporting four crew members. The results of the tests confirmed the fulfilment of requirements by the tested vehicle with respect to the strength of transport nodes.
