Family Of Med Tac Veh
Abstract
The FMTVA2 production and Engineering Change Proposal (ECP) modernization effort restores vehicle performance that was lost due to the addition of armor protection kits as the threat to tactical vehicles and the FMTV has increased. The FMTVA2 also addresses Space, Weight, Power, and Cooling (SWaP-C) constraints from having to host an increasing amount of Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) and Counter-Incendiary Explosive Device (IED) equipment. Program Management Office (PMO) Medium Tactical Vehicles (MTV) is executing the FMTVA2 effort documented in a signed Acquisition Decision Memorandum (ADM) by the Army Acquisition Executive (AAE) on 16 November 2015. FY 2018 Project H07 Base funds in the amount of $1.900 million will be used for the procurement of FMTVA2 Live Fire Test assets to support Live Fire Testing required per Chapter 139, Title 10 USC. The FMTVA1P2 represents the FMTV model currently in production with over 38,000 vehicles fielded to date. The FMTVA1P2 will remain in the tactical vehicle fleet until 2040 and beyond. To keep the A1P2 fleet viable into the future and able to perform its mission in austere environments, upgrades to Survivability and Crew Protection Kits will be required as the threat on the battlefield evolves. FY 2018 Project H07 Base funds in the amount of $1.800 million will be used for development and testing of improvements to the FMTVA1P2 Underbody Armor Kit that simplifies the design and reduces installation cost and complexity. The three FMTV LVAD models (M1081, M1093, M1094) ended production in 2009 and represent the oldest vehicles in the FMTV fleet. Updates to the LVAD are needed to address obsolescence issues and bring the configuration up to today’s standards. FY 2018 Project H07 Base funds in the amount of $0.500 million will be used for analysis to support configuration options for the next generation LVAD model. Improved vehicle safety technologies are now available commercially that can reduce the number and severity of motor vehicle accidents, including Electronic Stability Control, collision mitigation, lane keeping assist, and rollover prevention. FY 2018 Project H07 Base funds in the amount of $1.339 million will be used for development and integration of active safety improvements. To ensure supportability of the FMTVA1P2 through 2040 and beyond, the PMO MTV, as lifecycle managers for the system, shall address potential obsolescence issues with the powertrain and Material Handling Equipment used on the FMTV. FY 2018 Project H07 Base funds in the amount of $0.450 million will be used for Analysis of Alternative engine and MHE options to address future obsolescence issues. FY 2018 Project H07 Base funds in the amount of $0.050 million will be used for Systems Engineering/Program Management (SEPM) support.
