The JLTV program: overview at Defense Update

The U.S.Army was designated as the lead service of the Joint Army/Marine Corps program. On February 5, 2008 the Army released the Request for Proposal (RFP) inviting suppliers to submit proposals for the development of a JLTV Family of Vehicles (FoV). The Army plans to evaluate at least three industry teams through the system's 27 month development and demonstration phase, maintaining multiple contractor teams through the low-rate initial production.

The story includes a variety of pictures, along with an infographic that helps illustrate the military's expectations for hauling capacity and varied utility.

The BAE-Navistar prototype effectively has top billing, as the first two photos feature that vehicle.
