US Army ‘Re-Releases’ GCV RFP
The US Army has ‘re-released’ its request for proposals (RFP) for the Technology Development (TD) phase for a new Infantry Fighting Vehicle today under the Ground Combat Vehicle programme. The army anticipates awarding “up to three” contracts for the planned 24 month TD phase in the early third quarter of 2011.
The new RFP follows the 25 August 2010 cancellation of the original solicitation for GCV.
“The Ground Combat Vehicle operational requirement is grounded in a requirement for army forces to conduct full spectrum operations,” explains Michael Smith, Mounted Concepts and Requirements Development representative from the US Army Maneuver Center
