Joint Light Tactical Vehicle - ED

Abstract

Joint Light Tactical Vehicles (JLTV): Funding supports the development and testing of the JLTV Family of Vehicles (FoV), which is joint program between the U.S. Army and the Marine Corps. The JLTV goal is a FoV capable of performing multiple mission roles that will be designed to provide protected, sustained, networked mobility for personnel and payloads across the full range of military operations. JLTV objectives include increased protection and performance over the current fleet; minimizing ownership costs by maximizing commonality, fuel efficiency, reliability, and mantaining effective competition throughout throughout the lifecycle. Commonality of components, maintenance procedures, training, etc., between vehicles is expected to be inherent in FoV solutions across mission variants to minimize total ownership cost. Unique service requirements have been minimized. During FY 2014, major budget activities include continuation of three Engineering and Manufacturing Development contracts; Performance testing, Reliability, Availability and Maintainability (RAM) testing, Ballistic and Automatic Fire Extinguishing System (AFES), and Limited User testing, analysis of reports in preparation of Milestone C, and program management support.
