摘要

Sweden has ordered 215 military logistics trucks from Rhein-metall MAN Military Vehicles (RMMV), it was announced on 28 May. The order forms part of a joint acquisition project with Norway for military logistics vehicles. Worth up to EUR2 billion (USD2.72 billion) and potentially including 2,000 vehicles, the programme also includes through-life support arrangements. Three contracts were signed between Sweden and RMMV on 28 May: the initial purchase order; a framework agreement for future orders and variants; and a contractor logistics support arrangement. Of the 215 vehicles ordered, 51 will be equipped with protected cabs.
