AM General, a tactical military vehicles and mobility systems manufacturer, has unveiled the new JLTV A2 at the International Defense Exhibition. In under two years, the company built a manufacturing facility from the ground up where production has officially started on this next generation tactical vehicle.
In close collaboration with the US Army, AM General will implement over 250 engineering changes to improve the vehicle for the end user. Key among the changes are the reduction of interior and exterior noise levels, improved corrosion protection, and improved fuel economy.
The vehicle's versatility and lethality are also featured by integrating a Hornet Air Guard Remote Controlled Weapon System (RCWS) with Counter-UAS concept by Hornet.
The Hornet Air Guard concept offers anti-drone detection & neutralization capabilities to the Hornet RCWS which provides surveillance, fire, and self-protection thanks the use of air-burst ammunition and the addition of an independent drone detection ring.
Production of the JLTV A2 is already under way with initial deliveries beginning in the second quarter of 2025.
