WASHINGTON — The Army’s effort to bring a Mobile Protected Firepower
(MPF) capability to infantry brigade combat teams -- a near-term
priority laid out in the service’s combat vehicle modernization strategy
-- has officially kicked off with the release of a request for
proposals on Nov. 21.
The service issued several draft RFPs to industry throughout the year
to make clear what it is looking for from base requirements to objective
features and several companies came forward during the Association of
the U.S. Army’s annual conference in October with offerings while others
remained tight-lipped.
