![]() Once trials have been completed from around late 2023, the supplier is expected to be selected in time for an initial production and delivery contract to be signed in 2025.Īmerican Rheinmetall and GM Defense have entered a strategic partnership for this programme, to create a technologically sophisticated modern tactical truck which improves on the legacy vehicles with the implementation of various modern features. In the first phase, prototypes are to be built for trials, which are due to begin at the end of 2023. The multi-phase programme is valued at approximately USD 14 Bn (EUR 12.9 Bn) in total. The four companies have been awarded a combined total of USD 24.24 M, to provide three prototypes each for the CTT family of vehicles, with one prototype covering the replacement for M915 and M1088, one for PLS, and one for HEMTT. The CTT family of trucks is intended replace 40,000 legacy heavy tactical trucks for the US Army, including the M915 Line Haul Tractor, M1088 Medium Tractor, Palletized Load System (PLS), and Heavy Expanded Mobility Tactical Truck (HEMTT). On 27 January 2023, the National Advanced Mobility Consortium (NAMC), the evaluation body for the US Army, selected the American Rheinmetall Vehicles/GM Defense joint venture, Oshkosh Defense, Mack Defense, and Navistar Defence for the first phase of the US Army’s Common Tactical Truck (CTT) programme.
