Oshkosh Defense FMTV A2 LVAD 4x4 and 6x6 (Oshkosh Defense)
OSHKOSH, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — The U.S. Army placed another order with Oshkosh Defense to build cargo vehicles.
The $25 million order is to build FMTV A2 Low-Velocity Airdrop (LVAD) 4×4 Cargo vehicles and kits. 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.
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.
To date, the Army has placed orders for 797 Oshkosh FMTV A2 LVADs.
