Oshkosh MTVR | Medium Tactical Vehicle Replacement

The Medium Tactical Vehicle Replacement (MTVR) is a series of vehicles used by the U.S. Marines. The first MTVRs were delivered in late 1999. The MTVR is the equivalent of the U.S. Army’s Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles; the Marines do not use the FMTV (with the exception of the FMTV-based HIMARS) and the Army does not use the MTVR. There were originally four, later seven, MTVR variants, then nine (plus a sub-variant) as deliveries and development continued. A dedicated trailer and prototype/developmental MTVRs have also been produced. In FY12 the third (and final) five-year multi-year MTVR contract was awarded to Oshkosh. The final known MTVR delivery order was placed in September 2012, and inclusive of this order 11,359 MTVRs were ordered by the US Marines’, about 1900 of these for the Navy. _______________________________ ► More “Army Encyclopedia“ videos on: TWITEER: ht
