Big day, will get more tomorrow. 

You are one of the few people taking pictures who seem to understand that there are more things of interest to look at besides the couple of big name items.

The Army installed an active protection system on the M1 Abrams tank and fielded it in Europe, but the fate of other plans to equip similar defense measures on the service’s combat vehicles remains unclear.

The U.S. Marine Corps awarded Oshkosh Defense $39.6 million to begin production of its ROGUE Fires unmanned missile launcher, following the delivery of six prototypes earlier this year.

The Sept. 27 award for the Remotely Operated Ground Unit for Expeditionary Fires system would allow Oshkosh to begin low-rate initial production of this unmanned ground vehicle that’s based on the design of the Joint Light Tactical Vehicle.

The award does not have a number of vehicles associated with it, but Oshkosh program manager Chuck Bunton told Defense News at the Association of the U.S. Army’s annual conference that the contract would allow the business to establish low-rate initial production alongside the existing JLTV assembly line.

Rheinmetall’s world class, combat proven L52 155mm Cannon Armament integrated on the M109 Self-Propelled Howitzer System is the optimal solution for the Army’s requirement to upgrade the M109 fleet. The exceptional L52 armament currently in service in Ukraine and with eight global allied users delivers a significant increase in range, precision and lethality. Rheinmetall will further display its operationally proven suite of propellants and munitions on site at AUSA this year. These products and capabilities are closely aligned with the Army’s Long-Range Precision Fires modernization priorities. The Rheinmetall-BAE team will perform a series of live fire demonstrations of the upgraded M109-52 in 2023 and 2024. Rheinmetall will feature the systems solutions for platform, cannon, projectile and propellant technology across the artillery “eco-system” on its booth. A full-sized M109-52 prototype system will be featured on the BAE Systems booth (#925) for attendees to view throughout the show.

Technically belongs in the artillery thread but its easier to keep AUSA posts grouped.

Looks like the Moog SHORAD package on the AMPV.

This is a good platform for it.

Sure looks like it's based on a Bradley.

Seems more like a concept for a modular tank than an unmanned vehicle.

Bigger pic of the StrykerQB.

Yeah it does for me now as well, curious.

Glad I saved it.
