The ACV platform is designed to deliver adaptability, mobility and protection across a range of operational environments, while transporting troops, mission-essential equipment and other payloads. It is also prepared for integration with advanced systems, including the 30mm turret produced by Kongsberg.
“The ACV has shown time and time again how adaptable it is, capable of handling everything from open ocean to tough inland missions,” said Rebecca McGrane, vice president of Amphibious programs at BAE Systems. “With it’s ability to integrate advanced systems like the 30mm cannon, we’re ensuring Marines are ready to meet any challenge, anywhere.”
BAE Systems is also under contract for the ACV-Personnel and ACV-Command variants, while three ACV-Recovery production representative test vehicles have been built and delivered. Work on the ACV-30 programme will be carried out in Johnstown and York, Pennsylvania, and at the Naval Warfare Information Center in Charleston, South Carolina, supporting government integration of the Kongsberg turret.
