Working with DTNA, BAE Systems’ engineers developed an armour package for the M915A5 model, which consists of both an A-kit and a B-kit.
The $7m order is for 380 A-kits, including a reinforced armoured cab and a chassis engineered to provide additional protection to soldiers inside the vehicle, as well as to support the added weight of supplemental armour panels.
BAE Systems received an initial $32m contract for M915A5 A-kits from DTNA in September 2009.
The company also produces B-kits for M915A5 trucks as determined and requested by the US Army. The B-kits consist of field-installed, customisable and removable armour panels that interface with the A-kits to provide maximum protection to the crew.
