Oshkosh Defense was first awarded the US Army’s FMTV contract in 2009 and has delivered more than 35,700 FMTV trucks and trailers so far.

The FMTVs are equipped with crew-protecting armour and advanced technologies to provide protection to move troops and supplies, recover vehicles and weapon systems or haul equipment.

Oshkosh said that commonality of parts across chassis variants significantly reduces the logistics burden as well as operational and support costs.
