Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV)
The U.S. Joint Services have a requirement for a new Joint Light Tactical Wheeled Vehicle platform that provides better protection, survivability and capabilities than today’s fleet.
BAE Systems, Navistar Defense and Arvin Meritor have teamed to compete for the JLTV program. The team is unmatched from concept to combat. It combines BAE Systems’ proven combat system design excellence, Navistar’s world-class supply chain, best-of-breed commercial production, and worldwide logistics and Arvin Meritor’s advanced mobility systems.
The team is offering a purpose-built, Warfighter-centric JLTV design that provides unmatched strength, protection and support for the Warfighter. The Warfighter-centric design incorporates lessons learned from BAE Systems’ successful history of combat vehicle production and optimizes payload, protection and performance to meet all JLTV requirements. The team is testing prototypes and competing to win a 27-month Technology Demonstration contract. |
