The United States Marine Corps aims to enhance its medium tactical vehicle fleet by transitioning to hybrid trucks capable of silent operations and reduced fuel consumption. Mack Trucks and ND Defense have received contracts to develop prototypes, with both companies required to deliver their models by May 2024. The new truck fleet will include various types, such as cargo and wrecker trucks, equipped with hybrid powertrains capable of supplying significant power to external systems. Initial performance testing will influence the eventual manufacturing contract decision expected in fiscal year 2027.
The new MTT vehicle stands out with hybrid powertrains and silent capability, aimed at reducing fuel consumption and enabling silent operations, fulfilling the Marines' evolving needs.
Both Mack Trucks and ND Defense are tasked with delivering prototypes of hybrid trucks by May 2024 that can power tools and operate silently, enhancing tactical flexibility.
