Oshkosh marks M-ATV delivery milestone

OSHKOSH, Wis., Nov. 11 (UPI) -- Wisconsin-based Oshkosh Corp. for the fourth month in a row has surpassed its mine-resistant, ambush-protected all-terrain vehicle delivery expectations.

Oshkosh, under contract to deliver its M-ATVs to support ongoing military operations in Afghanistan, announced a milestone achievement following its fourth consecutive month surpassing vehicle delivery requirements.

Officials say Oshkosh is expected to produce 385 of its M-ATVs every month. The company announced it delivered more than 150 additional M-ATV in October marking its fourth month in a row exceeding expectations.

"We continue to increase our high-quantity M-ATV production levels while meeting our other contractual obligations," Josef Matosevic, Oshkosh senior vice president of global operating systems, said in a statement.
