The three-year firm fixed-price contract includes the build and delivery of the vehicles along with one year of spare parts support. The vehicles are intended to strengthen Ukraine’s military by improving ground mobility and defensive capabilities.
The COMMANDO Select vehicle is designed to operate in demanding environments while providing high levels of crew protection and mobility. Textron Systems states the platform offers greater mobility than comparable armored vehicles currently available on the market.
“Textron Systems has delivered hundreds of COMMANDO vehicles to the U.S. Army over the last two decades,” said David Phillips, Senior Vice President Air, Land and Sea Systems. “The COMMANDO Select has demonstrated support to soldiers, serving as a combat-proven armored personnel carrier performing secure personnel movement, military police and constabulary operations as well as command and control operations to support ground mobility missions.”
Textron Systems has produced more than 10,000 ground vehicles for a wide range of customers over several decades. The COMMANDO Select is described as combat-proven, easy to operate and maintain, and supported by readily available parts, training, and service infrastructure.
