As stated by AM General, the NXT 360 is the next generation of Humvee light tactical vehicle configuration for maximum commonality, simplified maintenance, and streamlined fleet sustainment. NXT 360 ES model integrates a new digital backbone for easy diagnostics and integration of health monitoring systems, Defense Blog reports.
A digital video camera delivers a 60°-120° field of view live feed of the outside environment to ruggedized low-latency high definition LED display on the inside of the vehicle at the passenger’s position and to the commander’s display. As a result, eliminates the need for heavy transparent armor on rear passenger doors.
The new vehicle also will be equipped with optional bolt-on armor for a higher level of kinetic energy protection; 360° kinetic energy threat protection; under-vehicle blast threat protection; blast seats, floating floor and transparent armor.
