CTV/M-ATV/JLTV

The Army requirements for the JLTV to have the same level of under body protection as the Mine-Resistant, Ambush-Protected All-Terrain Vehicle (M-ATV) resulted in this variant being eliminated because it proved to be too heavy to be transportable by Army CH-47F and Marine Corps CH-53K helicopters.

There will be two JLTV variants
Combat Tactical Vehicle (CTV) that can transport four passengers and carry 3,500 pounds
Combat Support Vehicle (CSV) that can transport two passengers and carry 5,100 pounds

As to dates (and I get annoyed by future systems as much as you do Don), best guess is 2015-2020.
