The all-terrain troop carrier is designed to transport a nine-soldier infantry squad and their equipment and is based on GM’s Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 midsize truck, using 90% commercial, off-the-shelf parts.

“The expeditionary ISV is light enough to be sling loaded from a UH-60 Blackhawk helicopter and compact enough to fit inside a CH-47 Chinook helicopter for air transportability,” says the company in a news release. “The COTS parts, combined with the ISV’s innovative Rollover Protection System, will provide agile transportability on the battlefield to support mission success.”
