BAE, Iveco Team Up to Pursue Marine Personnel Carrier Program

According to BAE Systems, the firm will pair “with Iveco Defence Vehicles with a licensing agreement to form the basis of a business arrangement for the pursuit of the U.S. Marine Corps Personnel Carrier (MPC) program, with a vehicle based on the SUPERAV 8×8. In 2009, Iveco Defence Vehicles unveiled the SUPERAV 8×8 as the newest MPC candidate. The SUPERAV has capabilities based on previously fielded vehicles that include enhanced survivability, mobility performance, and amphibious capability with growth potential.”
