Army Orders Additional Oshkosh Medium Tactical Vehicles Worth $160M

Oshkosh‘s defense business has received four additional orders worth $159.6 million combined to supply 771 Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles to the U.S. Army.

The company said Thursday its current FMTV product line consists of 17 models that have a payload capacity ranging from 2.5 tons to 10 tons payload range and share more than 80 percent of common parts.

The Army initially awarded the manufacturer a contract in 2009 to build the vehicle’s A1P2 variant.

Pat Williams, vice president and general manager of Army and Marine Corps programs at Oshkosh Defense, said the company aims to exceed the 28,000-vehicle production target under the current A1P2 contract.
