Oshkosh to debut its MSVS SMP offering at CANSEC
OSHKOSH, Wis. (May 27, 2015) — Oshkosh Defense, LLC, an Oshkosh Corporation (NYSE: OSK) company, is debuting to the public its Medium Support Vehicle System (MSVS) Standard Military Pattern (SMP) offering at CANSEC 2015 on May 27-28 at the EY Centre in Ottawa, Ontario.
“Oshkosh Defense is committed to serving the Canadian Department of National Defence with the most combat-proven, technologically advanced vehicles to support Canadian troops across a full range of missions,” said John Lazar, senior director of international programs for Oshkosh Defense. “We are confident that Oshkosh’s unmatched vehicle performance and full life-cycle sustainment offerings for these critical modernization efforts will deliver exceptional value to the Canadian soldier.”
Oshkosh is leveraging its growing network of more than 700 Canadian suppliers and strategic team members for itsMSVS SMP offering. Through coordination with key partners, including DEW Engineering and Development, General Dynamics Land Systems-Canada and Link Suspensions of Canada-Raydan Division, Oshkosh is committed to returning 100 percent or more of its contract value back to the Canadian economy.
With a 70 percent off-road mission profile and a 98 percent mission reliability rate, the Oshkosh® MSVS SMP vehicles and trailers are built to serve logistics missions from disaster recovery at home to major conflicts abroad. Using decades of global operational experience, the Oshkosh MSVS SMP integrates an industry-leading suspension system, a high-performance drive train and safety systems to provide the Canadian Armed Forces next-generation performance and capabilities. The MSVS SMP also features a state-of-the-art armour protection system (APS) to protect Canadian troops operating in extreme and threatening conditions.
Five years of In-Service Support (ISS) are included within the MSVS SMP contract. As Canadian troops become increasingly involved in defence and humanitarian missions across the globe, life cycle sustainment is critical to ensure mission readiness. Oshkosh’s ISS offering leverages a team of highly trained in-theater service personnel and experience with major repair and overhaul programs to minimize MSVS SMP life cycle costs while maximizing reliability and readiness rates.
