The contract supports transmission production at the Joint Systems Manufacturing Center (JSMC) in Lima, Ohio, a key site for tank manufacturing. Additionally, overhaul and repair activities will be facilitated through kits purchased by the Integrated Logistics Support Center (ILSC) for use at Anniston Army Depot.
“This award underscores our ongoing commitment to the U.S. Army and our international allies,” said Dana Pittard, Vice President for Defence Programmes at Allison Transmission. “We remain dedicated to delivering excellence and advancing the Abrams programme for years to come.”
The contract includes new transmissions and repair kits, offering significant cost savings by delivering upgraded units with zero mileage on critical components. Alongside technical support, the agreement ensures the maintenance of essential drawings and technical data packages for system upkeep.
Deliveries are scheduled to begin in 2025, reinforcing Allison’s role as a trusted partner in enhancing the performance and reliability of the Abrams main battle tank.
