Joint Light Tactical Vehicle

Abstract

Funding supports the development and testing of the Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV) Family of Vehicles (FoV). JLTV is a joint program between the U.S. Army and the U.S. Marine Corps, of which the U.S. Army is the lead service. JLTV is a FoV capable of performing multiple mission roles designed to provide protected, sustained and networked mobility for personnel and payloads across the full Range of Military Operations (ROMO). JLTV objectives include increased protection and performance over the current legacy HMMWV fleet, minimizing ownership costs by maximizing commonality, fuel efficiency and reliability. The commonality of components, maintenance procedures, training, etc, among 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 2016 budget activities include the continued monitoring of contractor performance, continued fabrication of Live Fire Test Assets and the initialization of the LRIP test program to include ballistic, performance and RAM testing scheduled to start in 3Q FY 2016. Funding increased ($27.211M) from FY 2015 to FY 2016 due to the initiation of the LRIP test program and continued procurement of Live Fire Test Assets.
