Oshkosh Defense, an Oshkosh Corporation business, recently exhibited at the Modern Day Marine show held in Washington, D.C. from April 30 to May 2, 2024. Oshkosh introduced its Medium Tactical Vehicle Replacement (MTVR) 4×4 Technology Demonstrator and showcased the advanced autonomous technology of the U.S. Marine Corps' Remotely Operated Ground Unit for Expeditionary Fires (ROGUE-Fires).
The Medium Tactical Vehicle Replacement (MTVR) 4×4 Technology Demonstrator is a smaller, lighter version of the proven Oshkosh Defense MTVR. Purpose-built to maintain robust all-terrain mobility, the MTVR 4×4 Technology Demonstrator highlights the next-generation technologies, safety enhancements, and increased mission flexibility that is necessary for the evolving battlefield. As a provider of tactical wheeled vehicles for the U.S. Marine Corps, Oshkosh is committed to the continued modernization efforts of the USMC.
Developed for the U.S. Marines, ROGUE Fires is an unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) that leverages the JLTV’s extreme off-road mobility and payload capacity and Oshkosh’s advanced autonomous vehicle technologies to support Ground-Based Anti-Ship Missile (GBASM) operations.
Designed to operate in both teleoperated and fully autonomous modes, ROGUE-Fires serves as a versatile launch platform capable of handling various weapon payloads.
In April 2024, Oshkosh was awarded a delivery order valued at $40 million for the procurement of ROGUE-Fires to be used in the Navy/Marine Expeditionary Ship Interdiction System.
Oshkosh announced the contract to begin low-rate initial production from the Marine Corps Systems Command in October 2023.
