The US government is seeking a replacement for the AM General truck, and the U.S. Army's Tank and Automotive Command is currently refereeing a Future Tactical Truck Systems prototype competition. Navistar International and Lockheed Martin are participating, while AM General has not been selected. Navstar International's entry, the International FTTS is heavily based on the recently introduced International MXT-MV.
The Marine Corps is also looking into replacements for the HMMWV. The Office of Naval Research is funding Georgia Tech's ULTRA AP, a combat concept vehicle based on the F350 chassis, but with a "blast bucket" passenger compartment, and Ultra 3T, a project with more advanced (but unproven) technologies. The Office of Naval Research selected General Dynamics Land Systems and Oshkosh Truck to build Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV) mock-ups and conceptual designs, modeling and simulation to provide trade off analysis for the evaluation of future development of such vehicles. It would be a family of light armored wheeled vehicles with combat capability to provide more protection than the HMMWV.
