Many of the Light Tactical Vehicles AM General has developed for the U.S. military are available for export. Internationally, AM General is the premier provider of Light Tactical Vehicle solutions, with more than 230,000 HMMWVs currently in use in more than 60 countries worldwide. For nearly 30-years the HMMWVs has been in continuous production and has proven to be the vehicle of choice for a wide range of geographic and mission profiles. It remains an innovative, cost-effective mobility solution, tailored to client needs. Included in the roster of its more than 60 global customers are Iraq and Afghanistan, where AM General has been at the forefront in supporting the U.S. in its mission to establish strong and mobile local forces.
Enhanced Tactical Transportability (ETT) / Enhanced Tactical Mobility (ETM) HMMWV Kits: As envisioned, the ETT and ETM Kits can be applied to existing HMMWVs in the military fleet and provide an immediate and affordable solution for customers who need to rapidly deploy, employ, and re-deploy in support of strategic, operational and tactical power projection operations with minimal preparation. The ETM kit can be quickly and easily installed on a HMMWV by a unit maintenance team, and the ETT kit can be installed at the installation level. Once the kits are installed, the vehicles transport up to 9 soldiers, offer stable firing platforms for squad weapons and fit inside a CH-47 helicopter without major and costly logistical changes to training, maintenance procedures and supply support.
