Oshkosh Defense announced on Wednesday that the U.S. Army Tank-Automotive and Armaments Command (TACOM) Life Cycle Management Command (LCMC) has placed a US$141 Million order for 414 Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles A2 (FMTV A2) and 56 FMTV trailers.

The FMTV A2 is a modernized version of the FMTV A1P2, offering increased force protection, greater payload capacity, superior off-road mobility, enhanced engine power, and an upgraded electrical system. The advanced capabilities allow the FMTV A2 to support a wide range of duties, from combat missions and logistics operations to aiding in relief efforts.

“Since we were awarded the FMTV A2 production contract in 2018, we’ve worked closely with the U.S. Army to refine the platform and add additional capabilities,” said Pat Williams, Chief Program Officer for Oshkosh Defense. “We’re confident that we are delivering the best performing medium tactical vehicle in the world.”

With the order, Oshkosh Defense has received orders for 1,412 FMTV A2s and 800 FMTV trailers for a total order value of US$627 Million to date.
