Developed for the U.S. Marine Corps, ROGUE-Fires is an unmanned
ground vehicle (UGV) that leverages the JLTV’s extreme off-road
mobility and payload capacity and Oshkosh’s advanced vehicle
technologies to support Ground-Based Anti-Ship Missile (GBASM)
operations. Designed to operate in both teleoperated and
leader/follower modes, ROGUE-Fires serves as a versatile launcher
platform capable of handling various weapon payloads. In October
2023, Oshkosh announced the contract to begin low-rate initial
production from the Marine Corps Systems Command.
“Today’s award underscores the continued success of the
ROGUE-Fires program and Oshkosh’s unwavering commitment to working
hand in hand with the Marine Corps, understanding their mission
requirements, and equipping our Marines with unparalleled
warfighting capabilities,” said Pat Williams, chief programs
officer at Oshkosh Defense. “The versatile ROGUE-Fires platform we
are displaying at Modern Day Marine for the first time, harnesses
cutting-edge technologies and facilitates seamless integration of a
multitude of weapon systems. This platform will fulfill diverse
mission needs for many years to come."
Oshkosh Defense leadership will be available to discuss
ROGUE-Fires and the company’s entire portfolio of vehicles,
mobility systems, and leading-edge technologies at Modern Day
Marine in booth #1915.
