Armoured military vehicles. Repair and maintenance services of military vehicles. Armoured military vehicles. Repair and maintenance services of military vehicles. The provision and in-service support (including but not limited to spares, repairs, PDS and ad-hoc tasking) Protected Mobility (PM) vehicles of a modern design for UK Armed Forces.LPMR will support the rapidly deployable forces (i.e. first-in, airborne or amphibious capability) as well as the regular armed forces. LPMR must therefore provide protected mobility against real world scenarios encountered by military forces conducting Global Operations.As a core equipment, LPMR shall have an in-service life of at least 25 years.In order to achieve a Planning Assumption for Service Entry (PASE) date during 2019, the LPMR capability is expected to be based on Military off the Shelf (MOTS) mature platforms of modern design.Whilst a detailed system requirements document will be released as part of the Invitation to Negotiate (ITN), the following should be considered as general characteristics of a vehicle suitable to meet the LPMR requirement.Occupants:— 1 x Driver;— 1 x Commander.Capacity:— LPMR must be fitted with a winch (minimum capacity 10 000 kg);— LPMR must be able to undertake suspend/support towing activities (minimum lift capacity 4 000 kg);— LPMR must have an ability to stow and transport its Complete Equipment Schedule (CES) items.Dimensions:— Max width 2 500 mm;— Max Height 2 650 mm (transit mode).Transportability:— LPMR must be capable of being transported by land, sea and air (including but not limited to A400M and C17) with minimal preparation. There is no requirement to transport under slung by rotary wing aircraft.Mobility:— LPMR shall have = Improved Medium Mobility load carrying classification.Survivability:— To provide Threshold protection to the occupants from ballistic threat at = Stanag Level 2 and blast threat at = Stanag Level 2.
