MC AVS Development & Demonstration
Abstract
This is a CMC Force Design program. ACV provides protected mobility to otherwise dismounted infantry formations and enables littoral maneuver from ship-to-shore and from shore-to-shore. Equipped with modern communications systems and weapons for infantry support-by-fire, the ACV significantly improves the ability of Fleet Marine Forces to access, seize, and hold key maritime terrain in the execution of Expeditionary Advanced Base Operations. The Amphibious Combat Vehicle is imperative to realizing Marine Corps requirements for Fleet Marine Force 2030. The capability to project power from the sea ensures joint freedom of maneuver against increasingly sophisticated area denial and anti-access strategies across the range of military operations in areas vital to our national interest. To this end, an ACV creates operational and tactical options through rapid maneuver on sea and land, provides for the seamless transition of combat power from sea to land, enables rapid response to crisis, enables the introduction of joint follow-on forces and can impose disproportionate costs on our enemies who must extend their defenses. This program has delivered the initial capability of Personnel variants (ACV-Ps) in Nov 2020 and is on track to deliver the initial capability of Command variants (ACV-Cs) in 4Q FY 2023, Improved Lethality variants (ACV-30s) in 3Q FY 2026, and Recovery variants (ACV-Rs) in 4Q FY 2027.

- Change Summary Explanation
- The increase from FY 2021 to FY 2022 ($38.934) is primarily attributed to the following: o Increase for design and development due to ACV-30 Phase III risk reduction activities ($23.211M) needed to streamline the design of the 30MM RWS and vehicle in order to meet the weight and structural requirements prior to reaching Critical Design Review (CDR) by 2Q FY 2022; o Net decrease of $16.786M in ACV-C design and development/ACV-C prime contractor test support/ACV-30 Phase II design and development/ACV-R Technology Demonstrator efforts; o The order of three (3) ACV-30 Production Representative Test Vehicles (PRTVs) which will be incrementally funded($14M towards total of $21M) to initiate test and evaluation efforts; o The initiation of ACV-R variant design and development ($13.313M) as ACV-R moves out of the tech demonstration phase; o Increase in Training Devices and Simulators ($3.905M) to design a new Submerged Vehicle Egress Trainer (SVET) for safety in amphibious operations. FY 2022 full funding supports the program ability to perform the following: o complete testing and logistics demonstration efforts required to initiate procurement in FY 2022 of the Command variant (ACV-C); o complete Phase III (Risk Reduction Analysis effort) and Phase IV (Production Representative Test Vehicle build effort) for ACV-30; Additionally, ACV-30 design efforts are on the critical path to production in FY 2025; any adverse funding marks will jeopardize production in FY 2025 and could result in a production gap between FY 2024 and FY 2025 because ACV-30 is the only variant produced in FY 2025; o complete Technology Demonstration design efforts (risk reduction effort) and unable to initiate design and development for the Recovery variant (ACV-R) with the prime contractor.
