Reference to the Statement of Work. "Surface towing requirements: include paved, concrete, muddy non-engineered surfaces". Any piece of equipment that requires flat and hardened surfaces will be a failure in the required work environment. Another example of a failed the towing equipment is what one sees at the airport towing airplanes. "Muddy non-engineered surfaces" is the key term.
