Advanced Reconnaissance Vehicle
Abstract
The Advanced Reconnaissance Vehicle (ARV) is imperative to realizing Marine Corps requirements for Fleet Marine Force 2030 as the platform that enables the Mobile Reconnaissance Battalion. As part of the portfolio of reconnaissance, surveillance, and target acquisition systems, ARV will be a purpose-built combat vehicle system, highly mobile on land and water, that can sense, communicate, and fight as the manned hub of a robotic and autonomous systems-enhanced team. Equipped with modern command, control, communications and surveillance systems the ARV will transform the ability of Fleet Marine Forces to sense and communicate within the littoral operating environment by providing a persistent and mobile Systems of Systems to augment and sustain effective sensor webs and kill chains. The ARV is critical towards the modernization of Marine Corps reconnaissance capability. Increment 1 of the ARV program will consist of the C4UAS and two additional mission role variants (MRVs), with follow-on Increments in support of a Family of Vehicles (FoV). In FY 2025, the program office will execute contract options and modifications under the existing agreements/contracts. In an effort to drive down technical and programmatic risk, the government and both vendors will continue a test-fix-test effort focused on sub-system integration, interoperability and performance. The program office will continue activities to reduce risk and begin prototype vehicle build of an additional mission role variant (MRV), one for each of the two vendors. The USMC will continue utilizing a Government Systems Integration Lab (GSIL) to integrate the C4 (Command, Control, Computers and Communication) equipment, assess cyber security implementation and validate subsystem technology readiness. In preparation for Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD), the program office will procure long lead Government Furnished Property (Network on the Move, C4 critical items, etc) that have been impacted by the current supply chain challenges to support EMD prototype build. Documentation will be completed to support a Request for Proposal (RFP) release in FY 2025 and an ACAT I Milestone B decision in FY 2026.
