Light Strike Vehicle

The United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) has a requirement, in conjunction with the United States Marine Corp for a Light Strike Vehicle (LSV) for tatical and non-tactical operations. USSOCOM is conducting an industry survey to determine the state of technology for a possible Commercial Off the Shelf (COTS)/Non-Developmental Item (NDI) materiel solution. Units are required in the FY 99 timeframe for testing. Candidate vehicles must be capable of being internally tansportable within the future V22 aircraft. In order to be considered V-22 compatible, the vehicle would be required to be onloaded and off loaded through the 68 inch high and 68 inch wide cargo bay opening of the V-22.
