Remotely Operated Ground Unit for
Expeditionary Fires (ROGUE-Fires)
ROGUE-Fires is an unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) that leverages
the Oshkosh JLTV’s extreme off-road mobility and payload capacity
and advanced autonomous vehicle technologies to support
Ground-Based Anti-Ship Missile (GBASM) operations. Designed to
operate in both teleoperated and fully autonomous modes,
ROGUE-Fires serves as a versatile launch platform capable of
handling various weapon payloads or performing distributed
logistics operations. Oshkosh announced the contract to begin
low-rate initial production from the Marine Corps Systems Command
in October 2023.
“Developed for the U.S. Marine Corps, ROGUE-Fires is redefining
operational capabilities in contested environments,” said Pat
Williams, chief programs officer at Oshkosh Defense. “Our team is
excited to demonstrate how this next-generation technology is
transitioning into fielded systems and how it can be adapted to
meet the mission needs of the Army.”
Stryker Double V Hull with the Oshkosh
Defense 30mm Medium Caliber Weapon System
The Oshkosh Defense MCWS is a transformational lethality
solution that provides Stryker Brigade Combat Teams (SBCTs) with
improved firepower and increased accuracy at longer engagement
ranges. Oshkosh will demonstrate the system’s advanced adaptability
through integration of a Javelin ATGM launcher capability. The
Oshkosh MCWS completed Follow-on Operational Test and Evaluation
(FOT&E) in May 2024. An integral part of the acquisition
process, FOT&E allowed Soldiers an opportunity to evaluate the
system under realistic operational conditions. To date, Oshkosh has
delivered over 100 systems to support fielding in early 2025.
“Since the MCWS contract award in 2021, Oshkosh has partnered
with the Army to incorporate features specifically designed for the
Stryker mission,” continued Williams. “Soldier feedback has played
a significant role in shaping the requirements of the MCWS that we
are delivering today, and we look forward to showcasing it during
AUSA.”
Oshkosh Defense leadership will be available to discuss the
company’s entire portfolio of vehicles, mobility systems, and
next-generation technologies at AUSA 2024 in booth #7027.
