L-ATV Delivers a “Net Ready” Mobile Command Center with C4ISR Integration

Vehicle designed with key communication components

Battlefields of the future will generate an unpredictable combination of terrain, tactics and threats. And the introduction of new threats will continue to accelerate – from months to days. Warfighters need to stay connected wherever their mission takes them. Net Ready maximizes the Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C4ISR)capability for maritime, air, and ground forces to interoperate and communicate as a joint force. Whether it is a border security or a reconnaissance operation, ground troops require situational awareness, long range surveillance, shot detection, and silent watch power systems to execute mobile targeting. In parallel, maritime forces need shore-based firepower capabilities to successfully execute their missions.

Oshkosh Defense combines a proven history of vehicle design with extensive C4ISRand systems integration capabilities to enhance the user experience and maximize overall system performance. All design and integration is performed in-house assuring greater efficiency and overall system performance. The Oshkosh Net Ready solution fully integrates the following elements:

• Weapon systems

• Exportable power

• IED defeat

• Navigation

• Situational awareness

• Communication and control

The Oshkosh Light Combat Tactical All-Terrain Vehicle (L-ATV)is a great example of a platform that has scalable C4ISR capability and architecture to support a wide variety of mission configurations. The L-ATV is designed from the ground up to meet the scalability, flexibility, and reliability requirements of the military’s next generation vehicle.

Communications systems and equipment bolted-on in a modernization effort after the fact can degrade the design integrity of the vehicle, compromising the safety of troops who depend on the vehicle to get them to the fight. With the Oshkosh L-ATV, the vehicle systems are designed with key communication components in mind right from the start, optimizing the performance of the vehicle and its equipment.

The OshkoshL-ATV is designed with the versatility to integrate a wide-range of C4 equipment for today’s missions and adapt to tomorrow’s demands.

Scalability: Designedwith future requirements and technologies in mind, the L-ATV is wired for current and future C4 suites. The L-ATV is scalable and able to accommodate multiple expansion packages with its existing infrastructure.

Flexibility: Future battlefields represent many unknowns. C4I suites can be installed on the L-ATV at the field level, allowing the user to reconfigure the vehicle for individual mission set requirements.

Readiness: When the mission changes, the Oshkosh L-ATV can quickly adaptand reconfigure the components to meet the requirements right in the field, which optimizes fleet readiness.

Oshkosh’s dedicated team of C4ISR experts works with customers on overall vehicle system design and C4ISR equipment placement to meet the demands of operations, visibility, ergonomics and process simplification between multiple systems. The L-ATV delivers a Net Ready mobile command center with C4ISR integration that is designed to seamlessly incorporate a wide-range of communications, surveillance, weapons systems and exportable power. The Oshkosh L-ATV is Net Ready for your mission today.
