Oshkosh Defense Delivers Proposal for JLTV Production
OSHKOSH, Wis. (Feb. 10, 2015) — The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) is taking action to fill a critical capability gap in its tactical wheeled vehicle (TWV) fleet by advancing the Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV) program. Oshkosh Defense, LLC, an Oshkosh Corporation (NYSE: OSK) company, submitted its proposal today in response to the U.S. Government’s Request for Proposal (RFP) for JLTV Low Rate Initial Production (LRIP) and Full Rate Production (FRP). Oshkosh’s JLTV proposal addresses the U.S. Army and Marine Corps’ need for a lightweight, highly-mobile, net-ready vehicle with unprecedented levels of protection for our nation’s Warfighters on the modern battlefield.
