The US Army and an Oshkosh Defense-led team are embarking on a new upgunned Stryker ‘risk management testing' effort to fix the weapons' ability to mark targets and hit them while on the move, according to the service.
In early June the service selected an Oshkosh, Rafael, and Pratt Miller team (the latter of which Oshkosh recently acquired) to outfit Double V-Hull A1 Stryker (DVHA1) vehicles with 30 mm cannons under a programme it dubs the “Medium Caliber Weapon System” (MCWS). The winning solution, based on Rafael's Samson family of turrets but ‘customised' for the programme, was selected over bids from two other competitors: General Dynamic Land Systems (GDLS) and Leonardo DRS. Since neither competing team opted to protest the army's decision, the service is progressing with plans to get the modified vehicle ready for its first unit-equipped date in December 2023, Colonel Bill Venable, Stryker Brigade Combat Team project manager, told Janes on 13 July.
