The past 12 months has seen billions-of-dollars in logistics, support and supply trucks ordered and delivered. The deals range from a US Army $1.5 billion contract with Oshkosh, Italy for $784 million from IDV and Canada’s $1.8 billion order for Mercedes-Benz Zetros trucks to a German order worth $3.5 billion with Rheinmetall.
The weapon will have a range of more than 2,000km, according to the UK Ministry of Defence.
Rival bids are expected for Spain’s 6x6 cavalry scout vehicle requirement, with an international consortium facing competition from major players including GDELS, Rheinmetall and the UAE’s Edge Group.
The procurement announcements emphasise the Dutch Ministry of Defence’s response to NATO’s call for heavier combat capabilities for land operations.
