Where are the two NATO slave receptacles located?

• A. External in the power entry hatch, Internal behind the driver's seat
• B. Both outside at rear corners
• C. Both inside the troop compartment near seats
• D. One on the front, one on the back

Answer: (A)

These receptacles are auxiliary power outlets intended to support external equipment and internal systems, so their placement is chosen for quick access, protection, and practical cable routing. Having one located externally in the power entry hatch allows rapid connection of equipment when the vehicle is in use or parked, without opening the vehicle interior. The second receptacle placed inside behind the driver's seat provides an internal access point for powering equipment or performing connection work while keeping that connection protected from the elements and better secured. This combination offers versatility: easy external hookups plus a convenient internal option, which is why it fits best. Other arrangements would either expose connectors to weather and damage, or make external hookups unnecessarily difficult or impractical.
