The Textron Marine & Land Systems M1117 Armored Security Vehicle (ASV) is the base model of the ASV, both in production and in combat use. It is the patrol version used by convoy protection platform units and tactical Military Police of the U.S. Army.
The M1117 ASV entered production in 1999 and has current contracts totaling more than 2,700 vehicles. The M1117 ASV has been fielded in Iraq, Afghanistan, Germany and Kosovo with the U.S. Army on missions including convoy protection, combat patrol and base security.
The M1117 4x4 armored, wheeled vehicle serves as a battlefield-proven platform providing for exceptional levels of soldier protection and security. The low profile UGWS 40/50 turret's under-armor reload capability, combined with its oblique armored steel hull and ceramic composite expandable armor, provide for unparalleled all around survivability against small arms fire, , overhead artillery fragmentations and under-wheel and under-hull mine blasts.
To these impressive attributes, add the fact that the M1117 ASV has consistently exceeded combat availability and operational readiness goals.
