Light Tactical Wheeled Vehicles

Abstract

The Army Ground Mobility Vehicles (GMV) through enhanced tactical mobility will motorize the Infantry Brigade Combat Teams (IBCT) via 9-Soldier infantry squads with their associated equipment to move quickly around the battlefield. This capability is required across the range of military operations facing Infantry Brigade Combat Team (IBCT) units conducting crises response, initial entry, and selected decisive action missions. GMV deploys worldwide by sea, air, and land modes to support strategic deployment and operational maneuver in accordance with Army and Joint doctrine. This capability provides flexibility for entry operations (permissive and non-permissive) to counter threat anti-access strategies by using multiple austere entry points to bring in combined arms configured units. The electric Light Reconnaissance Vehicle (eLRV) platform through electrification will provide commanders a substantial competitive advantage in the Multi-Domain Operational (MDO) Environment against threat capabilities through reduction in acoustic and thermal signature, silent mobility, increased dash speed, extended range, increased reliability and reduction in CL III requirements. These attributes will enhance lethality and survivability of the mounted reconnaissance squad, platoon and troop. Funding supports modernization of the current Tactical Wheeled Vehicle fleets by investigating technology insertions including, but not limited to: predictive logistics, vetronics, Victory Architecture, autonomous operations and other emerging technologies. Funding also supports developing initial prototypes to enable refinement of Operational Requirements and early user feedback to support future sustainment and operational movement operating concepts. PE 0604642A has no FY 2023 funding request.
