http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JLTV"The following companies and partnerships bid for the JLTV contract:
Boeing, Textron and Millenworks[6][7]
General Dynamics and AM General (as 'General Tactical Vehicles')[8]
Force Protection Inc and DRS Technologies[9][10] (officially rejected on August 14, 2008).[11]
BAE Systems and Navistar[12]
Northrop Grumman, Oshkosh Truck and Plasan[12][13]
Lockheed Martin, BAE Systems Land & Armaments Global Tactical Systems, Alcoa Defense and JWF Industries.[14][15]
Blackwater and Raytheon[16]
On 29 October 2008 the Pentagon narrowed the field of vendors to the Lockheed Martin, General Tactical Vehicles and BAE Systems/Navistar teams to compete for the final version and contract for the JLTV. Each team received contracts worth between $35.9 million and $45 million to begin the second phase of the program, which could ultimately be worth $20 billion or more.[17] The contracts were put on hold following protests by the losing teams, Northrop Grumman-Oshkosh and Textron-Boeing-SAIC. On 17 February 2009, the Government Accounting Office denied the protests.[18]
Australia signed an agreement in February 2009 to fund nine of the first 30 JLTV prototypes.[19] India has become interested in the program in 2009.[20]
As part of a cost-cutting measure, the National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform suggests canceling the JLTV.[21]
As of 2 December 2011, the program was stripped of funding in the Senate's Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2012 because of "excessive cost growth, unstable requirements, and new alternatives."[22]"
So as you can see, a grand announcement of a joint venture, not a purchase of one by the other (a partnership that had already been in place for years) for a bid renewed on Jan 5th of this year, which was defunded in the Senate's Department of Defense Aprropriations Act 2012.
The US Army has little interest at this point and will probably mean they will go with a recapitalization (rebuild) of current HUMVEES. Even so, there are many companies vying for that work.
The only real interest at this point appears to be the vast armies of Australia and India.
I do know that the good folks at AM General are working very hard at keeping what work they do have and staying in the race for new contract.
War is hell, but it was good for business. An unfortunate and ugly truth.
