  • Land Combat Systems
    Spring 2015 Industry Study Final Report Land Combat Systems The Dwight D. Eisenhower School for National Security and Resource Strategy National Defense University Fort McNair, Washington, D.C. 20319-5062 i LAND COMBAT SYSTEMS 2015 ABSTRACT: The Land Combat Systems (LCS) industry, which consists of the Combat Vehicle (CV) market and the Tactical Wheeled Vehicle (TWV) market, faces challenges following the drawdown of U.S forces in Iraq and Afghanistan. Looming budget cuts, defense force structure realignments, and a new U.S. National Security Strategy have caused instability across the LCS industrial base. The TWV market has remained competitive for both Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and suppliers because of the predominately commercial nature of this segment of the industry. Due to the military unique nature of combat vehicles (no commercial application), the CV market has fewer OEMs and suppliers, although these market participants compete aggressively. As the Department of Defense (DoD) continues to struggle with budget cuts and Congressional directives, both industry and DoD must work together to ensure that the LCS industry remains viable domestically, while also seeking "best of breed" products from the global marketplace.

    CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE A CBO STUDY AUGUST 2006 The Army’s Future Combat Systems Program and Alternatives Pub. No. 2565 A CBO STUDY The Army’s Future Combat Systems Program and Alternatives August 2006 The Congress of the United States O Congressional Budget Office Notes Unless otherwise indicated, all years referred to in the study are federal fiscal years (which run from October 1 to September 30), and all costs are expressed in 2006 dollars. Numbers in the text and tables may not add up to totals because of rounding. Cover art from the Department of the Army. Preface The Army is attempting to transform itself from a force designed primarily to fight large and protracted wars in a limited number of locations to one capable of reacting rapidly to crises anywhere in the world. In its endeavor to make its combat units more versatile and agile, the Army is planning to replace its heavy, aging armored combat vehicles with newer, lighter systems that it expects will be as lethal and survivable as the vehicles they are replacing. Several types of manned vehicles as well as unmanned aerial and ground vehicles, missile launchers, and communications links would be developed and procured within a single pro- gram known as the Future Combat Systems (FCS) program. This study by the Congressional Budget Office (CBO), which was prepared at the request of the Ranking Member of the Tactical Air and Land Forces Subcommittee of the House Com- mittee on Armed Services, considers the near- and long-term implications of the FCS pro- gram.

  • Land Combat Systems Industry
    Spring 2008 Industry Study Final Report Land Combat Systems Industry The Industrial College of the Armed Forces National Defense University Fort McNair, Washington, D.C. 20319-5062 Land Combat Systems 2008 ABSTRACT: The seminar surveyed the state of the U.S. Land Combat System industry. The study found that the current LCS industry has responded well to the demands of wartime production. Funding fluctuations, domestic specialty metal useage requirements, and long lead times contributed to delays in some procurements, leading the study to make recommendations for improvements to acquisition processes. In the near future, the demand for tactical wheeled vehicles will increase because the Iraq conflict has led to a new emphasis on the survivability of equipment and personnel. The challenges presented by globalization and impending budget cuts will drive the future of this industry. Concerns that the increased demand placed on the industry would be problematic were proven to be unfounded. A concern, though, is that globalization has created competing priorities for some suppliers as potential profit expansion requires overseas markets for combat vehicles. Another major development is the entrance into LCS markets by both commercial vehicle manufacturers and large defense firms traditionally focused on aerospace products. Finally, maintaining an industrial base for these systems is very challenging in a commercial setting, but the U.S. continues to seek ways to remove excess capacity from the government’s organic industrial base and seems less inclined to maintain the technological expertise of its acquisition workforce. This trend puts the Government at increasing risk as it becomes difficult to manage a shrinking base while preparing for the next conflict.
