Oshkosh to provide more JLTVs to FMS customers
Additional vehicles and associated equipment to be delivered to Montenegro, North Macedonia and Slovenia.
Oshkosh Defense has received a $15.26 million contract modification from US Army Contracting Command to exercise options for USMC procurement of Joint Light Tactical Vehicles (JLTVs) and associated kits.
An unknown number of additional vehicles and equipment will be provided to FMS customers Montenegro, North Macedonia and Slovenia.
Montenegro and Slovenia have already ordered 67 and 38 JLTVs respectively, according to Shephard Defence Insight.
The scope of the original FMS to North Macedonia was not disclosed. The sale was announced in November 2020 as part of a 59-vehicle package that also involves Brazil and Lithuania.
