SOF Tactical Vehicles
Abstract
This project funds the development, testing, and evaluation of Special Operations vehicles. The Special Operations Forces (SOF) mission mandates that SOF vehicles remain technologically superior, operate in multiple environments and be able to meet any threat to provide a maximum degree of survivability. The current family of SOF tactical vehicles include: individual mobility vehicle, light mobility vehicle, medium mobility vehicles, non-standard commercial vehicles and heavy mobility vehicles. Sub-projects funded in this project include: •Light mobility vehicle/ internally transportable vehicles. This FY2009 Congressional add develops and improves a lightweight, highly mobile, wheeled vehicle platform capable of transport by the family of V-22 aircraft. • Medium mobility vehicle. This initiative provides for product improvements in the areas of suspension, power management, armor protection, and unique vehicle design for all SOF tactical vehicle configurations. Improvements include, but are not limited to, new engineering change proposals (ECPs), field safety issues, and theater endorsed needs. These various engineering modifications make it essential to keep up with the increased weight and minimize the impact that it has on the basic vehicle.
