Joint Light Tactical Vehicle - ED

Abstract

Joint Light Tactical Vehicles (JLTV): Funding supports the development and testing of the JLTV Family of Vehicles (FoV). JLTV is a joint program between the U.S. Army and the Marine Corps, of which the U.S. Army has the lead. 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 maintaining 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. Major FY 2015 budget activities include completion of three Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) contracts, Ballistic Testing, completion of the Limited User Testing (LUT), and analysis of Live Fire & Operational Test reports in preparation for Milestone C. FY 2015 also includes efforts associated with the contract award for live fire test assets, Source Selection Evaluation activities, and completion of Milestone C documentation in preparation for the Defense Acquisition Board and program management support.
