Joint Light Tactical Vehicle
Abstract
This is a CMC Force Design program. Funding supports the JLTV Family of Vehicles (FoV) to include the development and testing of Command, Control, Communications, Computers, & Intelligence (C4I) for integration with the JLTV. 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. The JLTV FoV is 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 features include increased performance, protection, and payload over the current legacy HMMWV fleet, reducing ownership costs by maximizing commonality, fuel efficiency and reliability. The commonality of components, maintenance procedures, training, etc, among vehicles are inherent in FoV solutions across mission variants to minimize total ownership costs. Unique service requirements have been minimized. RDT&E funding supports modernization of the current JLTV by investigating technology insertions including, but not limited to: condition based maintenance, vetronics, autonomous operations and other emerging technologies; engineering change orders (ECOs) and retrofits to maintain the configuration of the RDT&E Government Systems Integration Laboratory (GSIL) trucks being used to integrate various weapons platforms. Future C4ISR integration activities include integration of systems such as: Marine Air Defense Integrated System (MADIS); Network on the Move (NOTM) Ground Combat Vehicles; Communications Emitter Sensing and Attack Systems (CESAS); Military GPS User Equipment (MGUE); and Remote Weapons System (RWS) Cannon. This line funds costs allocable to the JLTV program. FY 2022 budget activities include systems engineering/integration activities, Condition Based Maintenance (CBM) development, and engineering design analysis and test efforts. Efforts will focus on the initiation of design, integration and testing for the Next Generation Powertrain which will consider parallel hybrid, series hybrid, and a full electric option; Cyber Scans to evaluate emerging threats and technologies; JLTV Utility Multipurpose Protected Shelter (JUMPS) to support emerging requirements such as Protected Ambulance, and Protected Command and Control; and enhancing performance of Command, Control, Communications, Computers and Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) system capabilities as they relate to the JLTV; developmental efforts required for the integration of future C4ISR requirements on the JLTV; cyber security vulnerability assessments and development of associated solutions of the JLTV system and integrated GFE and software; and activities at NAVSEA Penn State for the development of a methodology for Condition Based Maintenance (CBM) data architecture for the JLTV. This includes a new methodology for data collection and data transport, development of analytics to derive a JLTV CBM+ performance baseline, and evaluate data sets from the sample data. The net funding decrease from FY 2021 to FY 2022 of $0.536M is due to completion of various design study and analysis engineering efforts. The Marine Corps affirms with a high degree of confidence that the programs in this line item are executable.
