General Information. The United States Army, referred to herein as the United States Government (USG), is seeking information to assess the marketplace availability and industry capabilities for providing the Next Generation Future Truck (NGFT) to replace the mission sets of the Palletized Load System (PLS) A1, Heavy Expanded Mobility Tactical Truck (HEMTT) A4, and M915 Tractor heavy tactical vehicles.
...
NGFT Capability Summary. The current fleet of heavy tactical wheeled vehicles, which includes the PLS, HEMTT, and M915 Tractor, are no longer aligned with current technology. The USG is seeking information from vehicle manufacturers able to provide a contemporary replacement for our aging fleet leveraging the advancements available within industry. The feedback and information received in response to this RFI will inform our acquisition strategy for the next generation of heavy tactical wheeled vehicles. The USG requires the NGFT result in:
1. Integration of advanced self-diagnostics/telematics;
2. Drive-by-wire foundation with open architecture for future autonomy upgrades;
3. Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (e.g., electronic stability control, collision warning, collision mitigation, adaptive cruise control, etc.);
4. Common chassis with improved suspension;
5. Improved fuel efficiency through smart electronic strategies such as engine off at idle and electrification of hydraulic, cooling fans, and other sub-systems;
6. Commercial platform production to achieve economies of scale;
7. Family of vehicles resulting in the ability to produce different variants that utilize a common power plant, transmission, cab, and navigational systems reducing the need for complex supply chains; and
8. Potential to upgrade Force Protection measures beyond current capabilities.
Mission Scenario. The NGFT will be a materiel solution designed to augment commanders’ capabilities and replace current logistics support platforms through all heavy lift echelons. What separates the NGFT from previous programs is that it will be a purpose-built, multi-axle, ruggedized, fuel efficient wheeled vehicle with a dedicated payload area configured to mission requirements. The NGFT will also provide the commander flexibility to conduct both semi-autonomous and autonomous transportation operations.
The purpose of modernizing the current fleet is to improve force protection, efficiency, and throughput. Integration of autonomy features will enhance force protection through iterative autonomy technology maturation, which will eventually allow for fully autonomous navigation. This capability reduces soldier vulnerability by providing an option to deliver supplies based on real time demand, independently and simultaneously, to multiple outposts via varied routes. Leveraging commercial investments in autonomy and Army technology currently in development for Leader-Follower, throughput will be increased while also providing increased manpower flexibility.
