On 22 Mar 2010, General Dynamics UK team was awarded contract to deliver Specialist Vehicle for the British Army.
ASCOD SV has been designed to a rating of 42 tonnes, and incorporates a fully proven transmission rated at 45 tonnes. This means the load carrying ability of ASCOD SV meets the full Future Rapid Effects System Specialist Vehicles (FRES SV) requirement now and won't require a major upgrade programme to deliver all the variants.
Based on a proven European design, it's the latest-generation vehicle developed specifically for FRES SV by a team of General Dynamics engineers in Britain and Europe. It is a low-risk choice for FRES SV, with excellent weight and growth potential.
It offers new levels of protection, from one common-base platform which can meet the whole of the requirement. Its turret is designed by Lockheed Martin UK INSYS, specifically for the British Army's scout role.
ASCOD SV also offers high value to the UK Defence Industrial Base. Its Intellectual Property will be based in the UK, part of the sovereign capability available to the British Government. By value, 80% of the vehicle manufacture will be completed in the UK, with 70% of the supply chain companies UK-based. Overall, ASCOD SV will create or safeguard more than 10,500 jobs in the UK.
it would be a great ifv
