US Army Orders First Lot of JLTVs From Oshkosh
WBAY - Oshkosh Corp. receives $243m JLTV order - March 23, 2016
The US Army’s Joint Light Tactical Vehicle program (JLTV) will cost significantly less than initially expected, according to a a recent Pentagon Selected Acquisition Report (SAR). The program’s cost is to drop about $6 billion, over 19 percent, from $30.6 billion to $24.7 billion. Breaking down the savings, $3.7 billion goes in realized savings, $1.3 billion in adjustments due to a stretched out procurement, and $550 million due to a changed methodology in estimating technical data package costs, among a few other factors.

Globalizzazione..... si grazie.
Mi chiedo se sia previsto montare una torretta automatica da comandare all'interno del veicolo, sarebbe poi ora che la smettessero di esporre i soldati alla mitragliatrice.
Si, c'e' anche la versione:
The JLTV has two variants: a two seat and a four seat variant, as well as a companion trailer (JLTV-T). The Oshkosh vehicle offers the company's Core1080 crew protection for survivability, turret operated systems, remote weapons systems, and tube launched missile system.

Globalizzazione..... si grazie.
L'altra versione non è che stia brillando in Yemen.

The newly fielded Joint Light Tactical Vehicle is ‘not operationally suitable’
“not operationally suitable because of deficiencies in reliability, maintainability, training, manuals, crew situational awareness, and safety,”
“not operationally effective for use in combat and tactical missions.”
“provides less capability to engage threats with the (Tube-launched, Optically tracked, Wire-guided) missiles over the Humvee. ”
“The missile reload process is slow and difficult for crews,”
“less storage space than other JLTV variants and accessing mission-essential equipment from the cargo area is a challenge,”
“the crew has poor visibility due to blind spots around the vehicle.”
“Crews had problems getting out of the JLTV and saw numerous reliability failures of doors not opening impeded the ability of the soldiers and marines to safely ingress and egress the JLTV.”
“Units cannot maintain the JLTV without support from the contractor field service representatives due to vehicle complexity, ineffective training, poor manuals, and challenges with troubleshooting the vehicle,”
“The trailer has less mobility than the JLTV, which slowed the operational tempo of the test units. The Army has made no decision to procure the JLTV companion trailer,”

Parliamo di piu veicoli.The service did not respond to questions about the production decision nor the recent DOT&E report, which detailed several JLTV problems. For example, the Pentagon's chief weapons testing office said that while the General Purpose Heavy Guns Carrier and Utility JLTV variants "are operationally effective" for combat and tactical missions, the Close Combat Weapons Carrier (CCWC) variant "is not" effective for these missions. The report noted that the CCWC variant "provides less capability to engage threats with the tube-launched, optically tracked, wire-guided (TOW) missiles over the fielded [Humvee]" and that crews face a "slow and difficult" missile reloading process.
La Oshkosh sta gia apportando le modifiche che l'esercito ha raccomandato.
E' raro trovare mezzi a cui non siano state apportati miglioramenti prima e durante la produzione.
Parlaci dei veicoli russi ruotati che ci facciamo due risati......
