By early 2016 the USMC had purchased a total of 687 PLST through a separate contract with the US Army. In May 2009, it was announced that the Marine Corps would receive an initial 30 M1076 PLST for use with the LVSR. The M1076, which is already in service with the US Army, is the selected trailer. The requirement for an LVSR companion trailer for the USMC has also been provided by Oshkosh. Deliveries included 1,505 MKR18 cargo variants, 355 MKR16 tractor trucks, and 162 MKR15 wreckers. Orders totalled 2,022, with the total order value around $965.78 million. LVSR deliveries were completed in September 2013. LVSR fielding began in April 2009 for user trials and testing and the first vehicle was fielded to Afghanistan in September 2009. This called for more than 425 LVSRs and transitioned LVSR from LRIP into full-rate production (FRP). In January 2009, Oshkosh announced an LVSR delivery order valued at $176 million. An additional 123 cargo variants, which completed low rate initial production (LRIP) quantities, were subsequently ordered under option year two of the production contract. Tractor and wrecker prototype vehicles began testing in November 2007 and April 2008 respectively. The first LVSR cargo variant began testing at the Aberdeen Proving Ground in June 2007.

Īn initial LVSR order issued on was valued at $28 million and ordered 22 cargo, two wrecker (recovery), and tractor truck LVSR variants, plus vehicle kits, training (operator/maintainer-cargo), test support-production verification testing cargo, meetings, and contract data requirements. Phase 1 testing was completed in 2005 and in late-May 2006, the USMC awarded the LVSR Phase II contract to Oshkosh Truck Corporation. The other company selected for the Phase I evaluation was the American Truck Company (ATC) with a TATRA-based design. Competition for the Phase II production award (scheduled for March 2006) was limited to those companies that successfully completed Phase I evaluation. This award was the first phase of a two-phase acquisition competition valued in March 2004 at $783 million for up to 1,581 vehicles. These were to be delivered to the Marines for extensive endurance and performance testing within 12 months. In March 2004 Oshkosh Truck Corporation (now Oshkosh Defense) announced that the US Marine Corps had awarded the company a Phase I System Development and Demonstration Contract to supply three LVSR trucks. The LVSR Request for Information (RfI) had originally been expected in May 2000. This had been delayed from an expected April 2002. Īn LVSR industry day was held in late 2001, and a formal solicitation to industry was released in early 2003. Around this time it was suggested that 2,000-3,000 vehicles might be required, although throughout the program numbers would fluctuate. Five alternative options had been considered, these were: Inspect and Replace Only As Necessary (IROAN) for the LVS rebuild the LVS re-manufacture the LVS to a higher standard rebuy a vehicle similar to the technology demonstrator research and develop an entirely new vehicle. In April 2001, Logistics Management Institute (LMI) completed their final report for the 'Analysis of Alternatives (AoA) for the USMC Logistics Vehicle System Replacement (LVSR), concluding the best option was to rebuy a vehicle similar to the technology demonstrator. LVS Modification Demonstrators (LVS-MDs) were also built, these integrating commercially proven automotive components and technologies. The ATD was built during 1998 at the Nevada Automotive Test Centre (NATC). Īs a precursor to a formal LVS replacement programme a number of manufacturers co-operated with the USMC to build and evaluate an Advanced Technology Demonstrator (ATD). The predecessor of the LVSR, the MK48 Logistics Vehicle System (LVS), had entered service with the US Marine Corps (USMC) from 1985 and in the late 1990s a project to replace the LVS was started.
