U.S. Army Continues Investment in Oshkosh FMTV A2 LVADs with Additional $25 Million Order

OSHKOSH, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oshkosh Defense, an Oshkosh Corporation [NYSE: OSK] company, announced today it was awarded an additional $25 million contract from the U.S. Army to deliver FMTV A2 Low-Velocity Airdrop (LVAD) 4x4 Cargo vehicles and kits.

This order, following a recent Army contract for 97 vehicles, demonstrates strong and sustained customer demand for mission-critical tactical mobility solutions in extreme environments.

“This award underscores our commitment to supporting the U.S. Army with proven, mission-ready capabilities that perform when and where the Soldier needs them most,” said Pat Williams, Chief Programs Officer for Oshkosh Defense. “By combining proven mobility with airdrop capability, the LVAD extends operational reach while reducing risk to our Soldiers.”

As the Army adapts to future operations that assume contested terrain, limited access, and increased mobility, the FMTV A2 LVAD fills a critical sustainment gap for airborne and rapidly deploying units. Designed to be parachuted from aircraft, the FMTV A2 LVAD delivers both critical supplies and a mission-ready vehicle immediately upon deployment, even in areas without established infrastructure. Delivered alongside maneuver forces, the vehicle reduces early reliance on vulnerable ground convoys and improves sustainment for forward-deployed units.

To date, the Army has placed orders for 797 Oshkosh FMTV A2 LVADs, signaling their commitment to modernizing airborne and expeditionary logistics capabilities.
