New light tank prototypes are being delivered to the 82nd Airborne Division at Fort Bragg, North Carolina for soldier vehicle assessment. The soldiers will help decide which Mobile Protected Firepower vehicle will prevail between the BAE Systems and General Dynamics Land Systems. The companies each build 12 prototypes of the Army’s future MPF and the Army is expected to choose a winner and transition to production “near the end of” fiscal 2022, the statement added.
