US Army widens Stryker lethality upgrade
The US Army is working towards providing lethality upgrades to its wider Stryker 8x8 Infantry Combat Vehicle family of vehicles (FoV) to provide much needed improvements to their battlefield capability and allow the vehicles to overmatch the weapons that adversaries are likely to bring to the fight.
It has released a request for information calls for market research 'in the area of medium caliber direct fire lethality for both the Stryker flat bottom chassis and the double V hull (DVH) chassis,' with specific interest focused on 'a medium caliber, direct fire and turreted capability' for both platform types.
