Amphibious Combat Vehicle 1.2
Abstract
The Amphibious Combat Vehicle (ACV) replaces the legacy Assault Amphibious Vehicle (AAV) battalions within the Marine Divisions. ACV-equipped Amphibious Assault (AA) companies will provide protected mobility and general support lift to elements of Marine Infantry Battalions. The ACV, an advanced generation, eight-wheeled armored personnel carrier, will mitigate current and projected capability gaps by providing improved lethality against dismounted enemy troops, more effective land and water tactical mobility, and increased force protection and survivability from blast, fragmentation, and kinetic energy threats. ACV is structured to be executed in multiple increments, with the first increment designed to provide an initial operational capability of personnel carriers. Subsequent increments are planned to provide additional personnel carriers and to develop Mission Role Variants (MRVs), such as command and control, improved lethality, and tactical recovery capabilities.
