Inside the Valanx
BREAKING NEWS: BAE Systems is proud to announce the selection of a Ford Motor Company engine to power our JLTV family of vehicles—the Power Stroke® 6.7 liter turbocharged diesel with class-leading fuel economy and the best horsepower and torque of any engine in its class. This is the same engine Ford designed, engineered, and built to power its F-Series Super Duty® trucks.
Payload. Protection. Performance. These are what today’s Warfighters need in a tactical vehicle. That’s what they’ll get with the Valanx™ – a new tactical vehicle that was built around the Warfighter to be the most capable and survivable light armored vehicle in existence. The combat threats are tough, but this vehicle is tougher. The challenge is great, but the Valanx team is ready.
See why the Valanx is the best vehicle for the Joint Light Tactical Vehicle program. And, learn how the BAE Systems-led team is ready to rapidly deliver this critical capability to America’s troops.
