Joint Light Tactical Vehicle
Abstract
JLTV Family of Vehicles (FOV): The Defense Acquisition Executive's mandate is the JLTV FoV undergo a robust Technology Development Phase, with multiple, competitive prototypes, to assure requirements achievability verified by demonstration of those systems. FY09 and future funding supports the development and testing of JLTV, which is a joint and international R&D program between the Army and Marine Corps, with the Australian Army participating under a Project Arrangement. The JLTV goal is a FoV with companion trailers 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 and other means; and maintaining effective competition throughout the lifecycle. The FoV includes ten (10) sub-configurations (and companion trailers) in three payload categories. Commonality of components, maintenance procedures, training, etc., between vehicles and trailers is expected to be inherent in FoV solutions within and across payload categories to minimize FoV total ownership cost. Unique service requirements have been minimized. During FY11, major budget activities will support completion of Reliability, Availability and Maintainability (RAM) and performance testing, as well as, live fire evaluations and the generation of test reports. In addition, Milestone (MS) B preparations will come to a conclusion with the milestone decision and award of Engineering Manufacturing Development (EMD) contracts. The Service plans on procuring EMD prototypes in FY12.
