The U.S. Army has chosen two vendors to build prototypes for the Infantry Squad Vehicle competition to find a new lightweight air-droppable platform.
Two defense contractors, Science Applications International Corp (SAIC) in collaboration with Polaris and Oshkosh Defense along with teammate, Flyer Defense LLC, have been awarded a contract to develop the new Infantry Squad Vehicle (ISV) intended to provide 9-member squads.

In the 90's we refitted old M151s for Fast Attack Vehicles (FAV) in the MEUs. We had to go to the boneyard at Albany Depot for M2 pintle/mount, and some minor mods. This was because HMMWVs wouldn't fit in a CH46. Now there are all kinds of Rat Patrol vehicles, and 46s are mostly replaced by MV22 Osprey. A whole new bunch of Amphib ships also. I am ancient I guess.
