Description

The US Army Medium Mine Protected Vehicle (MMPV) is a 6x6, multi-purpose, mine protected vehicle derived from the BAE Systems RG33 MRAP vehicle. The MMPV is used by the US Army's Engineers to conduct route and area clearance missions, command and control, mount mine clearing systems, and conduct explosive hazards reconnaissance. The US Army Explosive Ordnance Disposal teams will use these vehicles to neutralize Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs), mines and other unexploded ordnance. The US Army TACOM Life Cycle Management Command selected BAE Systems as the sole producer for the MMPV program on December 19, 2007. The initial contract, valued at $20 million, covers the production of nine MMPV test vehicles, associated equipment and services to be delivered between May and August 2008. BAE Systems and the Letterkenny Army Depot will perform automotive and final assembly production operations in Pennsylvania. The MMPV program calls for the production of up to 2,500 vehicles worth $2.28 billion through 2015.
