A removable equipment system for a vehicle, the equipment system comprising:

• an electronic equipment module, wherein the electronic equipment module comprises an inertial navigation system (INS);
• a frame that is to be disposed on the floor of the vehicle, wherein the frame includes:
• a main cross-member configured to extend along a width of an interior of the vehicle;
• and
• a main toggle clamp coupled to the main cross-member, wherein the main toggle clamp includes a main draw arm positioned to engage with a first seat striker of the vehicle to selectively secure the frame to the floor;
• and
• a mounting plate coupled to the frame, wherein the electronic equipment module is disposed on and mounted to the mounting plate.

A vehicle equipment platform, comprising:

• a vehicle having an interior floor that includes a plurality of seat strikers that are configured to secure at least one passenger seat to the floor;
• a removable equipment system selectively secured to the floor of the vehicle, wherein the equipment system includes:
• a frame disposed on the floor of the vehicle, wherein the frame includes:
• a main cross-member that extends along a width of the interior of the vehicle;
• and
• a main toggle clamp coupled to the main cross-member, wherein the main toggle clamp includes a main draw arm positioned to engage with a first seat striker of plurality of seat strikers to selectively secure the frame to the floor, wherein the main toggle clamp is selectively positionable on the main cross-member along the width of the interior of the vehicle to align the main draw arm with the first seat striker;
• a second cross-member that extends along the width of the interior of the vehicle;
• a spacer coupled to the main cross-member and to the second cross-member to space the main cross-member apart from the second cross-member;
• a second toggle clamp coupled to the second cross-member, wherein the second toggle clamp includes a second draw arm positioned to engage with a second seat striker of the plurality of seat strikers, wherein the spacer has a length configured to align the main draw arm with the first seat striker and to align the second draw arm with the second seat striker, and wherein the second toggle clamp is selectively positionable on the second cross-member along the width of the interior of the vehicle to align the second draw arm with the second seat striker;
• a mounting plate coupled to the frame;
• and
• an electronic equipment module disposed on and mounted to the mounting plate, wherein the first cross-member, the second cross-member, and the spacer, each comprise a structural framing material have a t-slot channel.
