New Joint Light Vehicle (JLTV) US Military

They also make that ubiquitous construction equipment called a JLG, scissor lift.

I think so, but there is a company called Oshkosh that currently makes the HEMTT and PLS trucks for the DoD, in fueler, cargo and wrecker versions.

Will it have a civilian version?  I can only imagine driving this bad boy in a rush hour...Then again, it would be stuck just like anybody else 

Tsk, Tsk, Tsk..........all this talk about "sustainment" cost of the actual vehicle.

This is a model building forum.

No one wonders if the retail price of the first 1/35 scale model of that vehicle will start at $100.00 or $200.00 per kit...........? 

GM, I'm sure a good portion of that initial cost is "sustainment". Spare parts and all that good stuff. I wonder if this is gonna have a while family like the HMMWV does: armament carriers, troop carriers, prime movers, ambulances, shelter carriers, etc.? Or is this gonna be a one size fit as all affair like the jeep family with no serious differences? It does look pretty rugged. 

I think a lot of people got used to the Humvee so I hope this its an upgrade for them and more importantly better protection and firepower. 

Doesn't Oshkosh make baby clothes ? 

Sorry,it is a cool looking vehicle.

Oh dear! The initial contract is for 17,000 vehicles plus sustainment, for $ 6,700,000,000.

By my math, thats $ 400,000 per vehicle.

While I really value the lives of our service personnel, this kind of thing just makes me want to .

Interesting though, and I guess the old Humvee is a "legacy" item now. Makes me feel old.
