U.S. Marine Corps Awards General Dynamics $44 M Contract for Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle Materials The U.S. Marine Corps Systems Command in Quantico, Virginia, has awarded General Dynamics Land Systems, a business unit of General Dynamics , a $43.8 million contract for the delivery of Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle (EFV) spare parts and systems for developmental testing. This contract is a modification to the existing Marine Corps' Systems Development and Demonstration (SDD) contract. EFV The Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle (EFV) possesses the ability to launch forces from 20-25 nautical miles out to sea and transport them to shore at speeds in excess of 20 knots (three times the current platform's speed). EFV provides the elements of flexibility and tactical surprise critical to establish battlefield dominance. Its inherent land mobility will generate uninterrupted momentum to attack the enemy's critical vulnerabilities. |
