The US Army has awarded a contract to Oshkosh Corporation to deliver an additional 400 mine-resistant ambush-protected (MRAP) all-terrain vehicles (M-ATV).
The Oshkosh M-ATV features a TAK-4 suspension system, which provides 16in of independent wheel travel and a 70% off-road profile capability.
M-ATVs protect the crew from improvised explosive devices and provide side slope stability, vehicle durability, extreme mobility and enhanced crew protection.
Deliveries, under the recent $175m contract, will run to May 2010.
To date, Oshkosh has received six awards valued at $3.3bn to deliver a total of 6,619 M-ATVs.
