Oshkosh Defense to recapitalise heavy tactical vehicles

August 01-15, 2011

Oshkosh Defense, a division of Oshkosh Corporation, will recapitalise 160 trucks from the US Army’s family of heavy tactical vehicles (FHTV) fleet, including heavy expanded mobility tactical truck (HEMTT) A4s and palletized load system (PLS) A1s, following an order from the US Army TACOM Life Cycle Management Command (LCMC). Through its recapitalisation programme, Oshkosh will restore these vehicles to the latest configuration in zero-miles/zero-hours condition at significantly less than the cost of a new vehicle.

Since 1970, Oshkosh has remanufactured more than 11,000 military vehicles. In addition to recapitalising its own vehicles, Oshkosh also upgrades vehicles originally built by other manufacturers. Oshkosh has refurbished more than 2,000 heavy-payload vehicles for the Army’s Theater Provided Equipment Refurbishment (TPER) programme.
