  1. FUTURE TACTICAL TRUCK SYSTEM (FTTS)

  2. The Objective Force…Our Future Army Soldiers Leader Development Organization Training Materiel Doctrine Installations Unit of Employment Unit of action FCS Battalions

  3. Future Combat Systems FCS is a networked system of systems that will serve as the core building block within all maneuver Unit of Action echelons to develop overmatching combat power, sustainability, agility, and versatility necessary for full spectrum military operations.

  6. From The Army G-4 • We must challenge Defense Contractors and their engineers to design systems that meet tough requirements. • Self reporting • No vehicles that get less than 30 mpg • No repairables • No spares • No Systems w/o embedded diagnostics/prognostics • Future systems must be built with ultra reliable components that require minimal preventive maintenance, and when maintenance is required repairs and services are easily and quickly performed. • No special tools • No external TMDE • MTBF > Duration of pulsed operations • We may have to pay up front for such “Ultra-reliable” systems, but our future warfightingconcepts depend on them. If systems don’t perform as advertised, there should be penalties. “Significant reduction in the logistics footprint and costs will occur when reliability, maintainability, And fuel efficiency are effectively balanced with Cost, Schedule and Performance”

  8. Sustainability Lethality Deployability Versatility Survivability Agility Responsiveness FTTS CONCEPTS DESCRIPTION: The FTTS-MSV is a multi functional, multi proponent single tactical truck family based upon a common chassis design sharing commonality with the UV. MISSION: Provides direct support to Unit of Action Brigades in terms of transportation and distribution of cargo, equipment, and personnel. OBJECTIVE FORCE ~200 FTTS-MSV Per UoA DESCRIPTION: The FTTS-UV is a multi-purpose tactical truck family based upon a common chassis design sharing commonality with MSV. MISSION: Provides light TWV support to the Unit of Action (UA) and the Unit of Employment (UE) in terms of C2, system support platform, and unit mobility. Two fleets promote: Reduction in Logistics Footprint Commonality among fleets ~150 FTTS-UV Per UoA

  9. Threshold Capabilities Sustainability • Reliability – MTBF > duration of Pulsed Operations • Maintainability – Self-reporting, no special tools, No TMDE, and No Spares Agility • Higher Mobility Rated Speed: 50% increase • Must be able to go where FCS goes and bypass built up Areas to deliver support Deployability • C130 Roll on/Roll off w/load • Ready to support off the ramp Without vehicle preparation or Transportability waivers Lethality Survivability • Reduced Emissions and Signature • Designed upfront to provide time definite and assured delivery Versatility • Advanced Load Handling • Interchangeable/Intermodal Operation • On Board Power & water Generation • Deliver integrated, common, formed Packaging Responsiveness • Greater Fuel Efficiency 100 - 200% • Dynamic Movement Tracking and Re-routing • Greater Range 600 – 900 miles • Integrated C4ISR ORD Starting Point

  10. Technology Roadmap • MATURE TECHNOLOGY INTRODUCED AND VALIDATED ON CURRENT PLATFORMS • OPEN SYSTEMS TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT – “SYSTEM OF SYSTEMS” • EFFECTIVELY INTEGRATE OBJECTIVE FORCE CONCEPTS • PULL FORWARD FTTS TECHNOLOGY INTO CURRENT PLATFORMS Current Platforms OBJ FORCE FTTS HORIZONTAL TECH INSERTION FCS

  11. FTTS Technology Strategy • Leveraging of technology critical • No one source has all the answers • No one program has all the resources • Collaborative environment the key enabler • AKO • ACE (Advanced Collaborative Environment) Prototype Development and Test Integration & Eval thru M&S Develop & Demo Technology Build Partnerships

  12. Future Tactical Trucks Dilemma FY03 FY04 FY05 FY06 FY07 ACTD SDD PRODUCTION A B C Tech Insertion Over time 60% Solution 80% Solution

  13. FTTS ACQUISITION STRATEGY • Will be initiated with an Advanced Concept Technology Demo • Prepare industry • Refine requirements • Program staged to follow in step with the FCS Program • Enable the insertion of FCS technologies • Concept & Technology Development effort predominately Modeling & Simulation • Focus on reduction of logistic footprint • Validate application of Objective Force infrastructure • System Development & Demonstration phase • First stage of phase features modeling and simulation to evaluate and refine contractor’s offerings • Second phase involves production and testing of prototypes

  15. Summary • Legacy platforms can achieve only a subset of required Objective Force capabilities • FTTS maximizes opportunities for Objective Force capability by leveraging 21st Century Truck research investment • Unconstrained design potential • Existing programs schedule staged in step with FCS Program FTTS is not a Truck…... It is theObjective Force SustainmentSystem
