US Army Prioritizes Fuel Efficiency And Stealth Capability
Oshkosh Defense is developing an electric/hybrid-drive variant of the Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV) platform, known as the eJLTV. The program aims to address US Army priorities around reducing fuel logistics burden and developing low-electromagnetic-signature capability. The eJLTV is designed to provide a more sustainable and stealthy military vehicle, with features such as reduced fuel consumption, electronic silence, and onboard power generation. According to Envanter Medya, the eJLTV remains in research and development, with the goal of meeting the same operational performance, military reliability, and maintenance standards as the conventional JLTV.
