Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what recent assessment he has made of the potential merits of the prospective foreign military sales option for the Oshkosh Joint Light Tactical Vehicle.

Following the outcome of the Integrated Review, the Army is reviewing its wider vehicle requirements including the way forward for the procurement of MRVP-Package 1, for which the Oshkosh-manufactured Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV) as a Foreign Military Sales (FMS) acquisition is the current solution. That consideration will encompass all aspects of the procurement to ensure consistency with the latest strategic direction and evolving marketplace.
