FRMV-based combat repair teams perform unscheduled field-level maintenance on FCS ground systems beyond the capabilities of the crew chief and crew and more in-depth battle damage assessment and repair (BDAR).
Each FRMV has a two-man or three-man crew and carries equipment and spare parts to conduct on-site vehicle repairs. The FRMV has an integrated crane and recovery winch for use in helping right overturned vehicles and recovering mired vehicles. The FRMV is capable of towing all FCS Manned Ground Vehicles, Armed Reconnaissance Vehicles, and Multifunction Utility/Logistics and Equipment vehicles. It also supports all field maintenance tasks that require lifting, welding, cutting and heating.
Mission - Provides mobility and transports combat repair team. Supports field maintenance and performs in-depth BDAR. Conducts remote diagnostics, recovery operations, and can transport up to four recovered crew under armor.
Survivability - Integrated survivability approach, active protection system, advanced armor, remote turret, multifunction countermeasures, threat warning sensors, signature management and passive NBC.
Sensors - Electro-optical/infrared, multi-function radar frequency, autonomous navigation system, threat warning and laser warning.
Command and Control - Every vehicle in the BCT will be equipped with a four or eight-channel Joint Tactical Radio System (JTRS), SATCOM and WIN-T. An integrated computer system will host the System-of-Systems Common Operating Environment (SOSCOE).
Embedded Training - Developed as an integral part of the FCS MGV architecture.
