With this latest order, the value for the Oshkosh Family of Heavy Tactical Vehicles (FHTV) III contract has risen to more than US$2.1 billion.
The delivery order includes 750 new vehicles and 600 recapitalised vehicles, comprised of the Oshkosh HEMTT A4 variants of tankers, wreckers, cargo and Load Handling Systems.
Through the Oshkosh Defense remanufacturing and recapitalisation services, heavily used vehicles are returned to Oshkosh, stripped to the frame rails and completely rebuilt to like-new condition.
Vehicles are put through the same extensive road tests, performance tests and inspection procedures as new vehicles.
They receive the latest upgrades, are considered to have zero miles and zero hours, and are delivered with the Oshkosh full bumper-to-bumper warranty.
"Recapitalisation by Oshkosh provides our customers with a valuable and cost effective means of returning vehicles to the fleet," Oshkosh Corporation president and chief operating officer, Charlie Szews, said.
"Through this program, Oshkosh delivers a vehicle with the performance, reliability and
all the modern enhancements of a new truck but at a lower price point."
