Oshkosh Defense, a division of Oshkosh Corporation, will produce more than 2,500 additional family of medium tactical vehicles (FMTV) trucks and trailers for the US Army following an order from the US Army TACOM Life Cycle Management Command (LCMC). The Army has now ordered more than 29,000 FMTV trucks and trailers from Oshkosh.

“Over the first three years of this fiveyear contract, we have delivered superiorquality trucks and trailers for soldiers for their combat operations, relief efforts and unit-resupply missions at home and abroad,” said Mike Ivy, Vice President and General Manager of Army Programs for Oshkosh Defense. “We will continue to offer fleet improvements by developing prototypes with upgraded technology, such as our TAK-4 independent suspension system that improves off-road mobility, ride quality and protection capabilities.”
