Oshkosh Defense has received a 53-million-dollar contract from the U.S. Army.
The contract was placed by the U.S. Army Contracting Command at the Detroit Arsenal. Company officials say the Army ordered Common Bridge Transporters under the Family of Heavy Tactical Vehicle Five program. The vehicles are designed to transport and deploy bridge assets for military units operating in difficult terrain. Oshkosh Defense says the transporters help combat formations maintain mobility across wet gaps.
