Oshkosh Defense, a division of Oshkosh Corporation, has unveiled an MRAP All-Terrain Vehicle (M-ATV) Multi-Mission Vehicle (MMV) equipped with Raytheon's tube-launched, optically-tracked, wire-guided (TOW) weapon system at AUSA Winter 2011. The M-ATV's off-road capabilities offer the military the potential to take the TOW system beyond forward operating bases and into mountainous, challenging landscapes in places like Afghanistan. "The exceptional tactical mobility that the M-ATV family of vehicles affords the armed forces has led to new opportunities to provide support in other capacities, including weapon systems," said Ken Juergens, vice president and general manager of Joint Programmes for Oshkosh Defense. "We designed new M-ATV variants in a collaborative manner with our customers, just as we did with the base vehicle, and we remain prepared for a quick-turnaround production as needed."
