The JLTV FoV consists oftwo variants: the four-seat Combat Tactical Vehicle (CTV) (Figure 1) and the two-seat Combat Support Vehicle (CSV) (Figure 2). The CTV is to support the General Purpose, Heavy Gun Carrier, and Close Combat Weapon Carrier mis sions. The CSVis to support the Utility/Shelter Carrier miss ion. The JLTV is transportable by a range of lift assets, including rotary-wing aircraft. Its maneuverability enables activities across the spectrumof terrain, including urban areas, while providing inherent and supplemental armor against direct fire and improvised explosive device threats. Current Program Status The JLTV is currently being produced by Oshkosh Defense, headquartered in Oshkosh, WI. In August 2015, the Army awarded Oshkosh a $6.7 billion low-rate initial production (LRIP) contractto procure the initial 16,901 vehicles for the Army and Marines. In June2019, the Assistant Secretary of the Army (Acquisitions, Logistics, and Technology) approved Army JLTVfull-rate production (FRP). The Army plans for a follow-on full-rate production contract to be awarded to a single vendor in the fourth quarter of FY2022. It is planned to be a competitive five- year contract with five one-year options, with an expected value of$12.3 billion, for about30,000JLTVs and 10,000 JLTV trailers. The Army began fielding LRIPJLTVs to units in April2019, and Marine Corps units received their first LRIP JLTVs in February 2019. Low-Rate Initial Production (LRIP) is a programmatic decision made when manufacturing development is completed and there is an ability to produce a small-quantity set of articles. It also establishes an initial production base and sets the stage for a gradual increase in production rate to allow for Full-Rate Production (FRP) upon completion of Operational Test and Evaluation (OT&E). Full-Rate Production (FRP) is a decision made that allows for government contractingfor economic production quantities following stabilization of the system design and validation of the production process.
