HOUSTON, Texas-BAE Systems has been awarded a $629 million contract from the U.S. Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) Joint Program Office (JPO) to upgrade 1,700 Caiman MRAP vehicles. This award demonstrates how BAE Systems' Readiness and Sustainment capabilities are supporting the customer's current and future requirements by rapidly improving product performance to protect troops during combat missions. The upgraded vehicle, called the Caiman Multi-Terrain Vehicle (MTV), integrates a refurbished and improved armored capsule from an existing Caiman with a new high-power automotive power train, chassis and independent suspension. These enhancements will provide greater levels of mobility and survivability necessary for challenging and varied environments and enemy threats. "The Caiman MTV meets the urgent and enduring needs of our troops for greater mobility and survivability," said Dennis Morris, president, BAE Systems Global Tactical Systems. "The Caiman MTV is a very adaptable configuration that can be customized to meet a variety of missions, and we look forward to getting these to the field." BAE Systems introduced the Caiman MTV earlier this year following a rapid design and development program to respond to user needs. Caiman MTV provides an effective combination of interior capacity, tactical mobility, operator comfort and survivability.HOUSTON, Texas-BAE Systems has been awarded a $629 million contract from the U.S. Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) Joint Program Office (JPO) to upgrade 1,700 Caiman MRAP vehicles.
