Medium Mine Protected Vehicle

The U.S. Army selected BAE Systems as the sole producer of the new Medium Mine Protected Vehicle (MMPV) on December 19, 2007 and issued an initial $20 million delivery order under the MMPV Firm Fixed-Price contract worth up to $2.288 billion. 

The MMPV is a multi-purpose, mine-protected, 6x6 wheeled vehicle based on BAE Systems' next generation RG33 family of vehicles. 

The MMPV provides Engineer Clearance Companies, Explosive Hazards Teams and Explosive Ordnance Disposal Companies with a blast-protected platform from which to fulfill four key missions: Route Clearance, Area Clearance, Explosive Hazards Reconnaissance and Explosive Ordnance Disposal.

MMPV’s design is tailored to Engineer and EoD force requirements, including an armored hull shaped to protect crew from mine blasts, an armored bulkhead to protect the crew and a hydraulic ramp for robot operations.

The MMPV is capable of hosting a variety of countermine and electronic countermeasures.

Under a strategic Public/Private Partnership Agreement, BAE Systems and the Letterkenny Army Depot will perform automotive and final assembly production operations of these vehicles in facilities on and adjacent to the Letterkenny Army Depot facilities in Pennsylvania.
