Oshkosh Defense has introduced its new Family of Multi-Mission Autonomous Vehicles (FMAV) during the Association of the United States Army (AUSA) Annual Meeting and Exposition held in Washington, D.C. The advanced lineup — comprising the Extreme (X-MAV), Medium (M-MAV), and Light (L-MAV) variants — is designed to align with the U.S. Army’s modernization goals, enhancing long-range precision strikes, battlefield autonomy, and overall mission flexibility.
The X-MAV serves as an autonomous-capable launcher platform tailored for long-range munitions, demonstrated at the event carrying four Tomahawk Land Attack Missiles. Built on a heavy-duty chassis with integrated onboard power and rugged off-road mobility, the vehicle underpins the Army’s Common Autonomous Multi-Domain Launcher Heavy (CADML-H) program, highlighting Oshkosh’s approach to scalable, mission-adaptive vehicle design.
The M-MAV variant bridges manned and unmanned operations, supporting a broad range of launcher configurations. Based on the Oshkosh FMTV A2 chassis, it integrates advanced navigation systems, remote-control features, and automated resupply technology to minimize crew workload and improve combat survivability. At AUSA, it was displayed configured for the Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS) family of munitions.
Completing the series, the L-MAV draws from the U.S. Marine Corps’ ROGUE Fires platform and offers a modular autonomous design adaptable to missions such as counter-UAS, electronic warfare, or tactical resupply. The showcased model featured AeroVironment’s Switchblade 600 loitering munition and Titan anti-drone systems, underscoring the vehicle’s versatility. Oshkosh emphasized that the FMAV series demonstrates how battle-tested vehicle architectures can be rapidly equipped with cutting-edge autonomy and mission systems, delivering configurable, ready-to-deploy solutions for multi-domain operations.
