Canada negotiates new armoured combat support vehicles
The Honourable Harjit S. Sajjan, Minister of National Defence, announced that the government will acquire 360 combat support Light Armoured Vehicles (LAV) from General Dynamics Land Systems-Canada (GDLS-C). Funds for the purchase are in the approved budget for Canada’s defence policy, Strong, Secure, Engaged. The Government of Canada also intends to provide a repayable loan to GDLS-C.
The CAF’s Armoured Combat Support Vehicles will be available in eight variants, providing services such as: ambulances, vehicle recovery, engineering, mobile repair, electronic warfare, troop carrying, and command posts.

  • Additional Mechanized Armoured Vehicles
    Requirements

    The project will deliver 60 armoured platforms to the Canadian Army in order to complete the replacement of the obsolete LAV III fleet capability.

    Funding Range

    $250 million to $499 million

    • CANSEC 2017
      Capable combat support [CANSEC17D2]
      General Dynamics Land Systems - Canada (GDLS-Canada, Booth 1301) is showcasing two new wheeled combat platform developments: the LAV 6.0 Combat Support Vehicle – Ambulance (CSV-A) and the LAV 6.0 Combat Support Vehicle – Maintenance and Recovery (CSV-MR), both of which are evolved from its baseline 8x8 LAV 6.0 light armoured vehicle platform, the centrepiece of the Canadian Army’s modernised combat vehicle fleet.

      The LAV 6.0 solution is the outcome of the C$1.064 billion Implementation Phase of the LAV III Upgrade Project (LAV-UP) awarded to GDLS-Canada in October 2011. LAV-UP provides for the comprehensive upgrade of 550 Canadian Army LAV IIIs in four configurations: Infantry Section Carrier, Command Post, Observation Post Vehicle and Engineer Vehicle, and is intended to extend the vehicle’s life to 2035.
      LAV-UP delivers significant improvements in survivability, mobility and lethality. Survivability enhancements include switching to a double-V hull offering inherent and weight-effcient protection from mine and improvised explosive device (IED) threats, as well as energy-attenuating seats at all crew locations. A more powerful 450hp engine is included, as well as upgrades to the drivetrain and suspension. Turret sights are upgraded to extend their range and gun control electronics are being improved to reduce crew workload. e fully upgraded vehicle weighs 63,000lb (28,576kg), but testing has demonstrated that its mobility is comparable with or better than the original high-mobility 38,000lb APC vehicle that the upgrade is based on.

      GDLS-Canada is now proposing the new LAV 6.0 CSV-A and CSV-MR variants – both of which have been developed with GDLS-Canada internal R&D funding – to meet a prospective capability requirement for ambulances, and maintenance and recovery vehicles capable of keeping up with the LAV 6.0 fleet, with the advantages of mobility, protection and payload, all on a common chassis for ease of training and low support costs.
      The LAV 6.0 CSV-MR is equipped with an earth-moving blade for obstacle clearance and construction, with a hydraulic hose reel enabling hydraulic tool operation off the vehicle. The vehicle can be optionally equipped with a supplementary 7.62mm protected remote weapon station and 76mm smoke grenade chargers, communications and land navigation packages, and situational awareness and vehicle survivability upgrades, including an automatic laser warning system.

      GDLS-Canada has evolved the LAV 6.0 CSV-A from a configuration unveiled in 2016 to anticipate future Canadian ambulance requirements. Among the CSV-A’s many new features is capability for a crew of four, adequate stowage for medical and personal equipment, and configuration options for two or four stretchers.

      Additionally, the platform can be optionally equipped with a communication and land navigation package, a HALON-free automatic and manually activated internal fire suppression system, and a suite of vehicle survivability solutions.

Galvion delivers first Silent Watch packs for LAV 6.0
General Dynamics Land Systems-Canada (GDLS-Canada) has received its first Symbasys Swatpack modular batteries from Galvion for use in the LRSS reconnaissance and surveillance system aboard the future LAV 6.0 light armoured vehicle.

Ten Swatpack lithium-ion 160Ah/4KWh battery modules comprise the Galvion Silent Watch solution in a custom-designed ballistic enclosure on the LAV 6.0 vehicle.

LRSS on LAV 6.0 will replace 141 ageing Coyote LAVs, providing the Canadian Army with state-of-the-art technology for advanced target detection, recognition and identification.

The 40Kwh Silent Watch system will provide the power to run the mounted surveillance system, including cameras, thermal imagers, laser rangefinders and other onboard electronic equipment.

‘The robust bespoke solution can power these demanding electronics over extended periods of time, in all conditions, with no thermal or aural signature, preserving the batteries for engine starting,’ Galvion announced on 15 April.

Canada buys 39 General Dynamics vehicles, eyes anti-tank weapons
The Canadian military has ordered 39 additional light-armored vehicles from General Dynamics for $165 million as it aims to replace equipment it donated to Ukraine earlier this year, according to a spokesman with the National Defence Department.
In July, Canada announced it was redirecting 39 light-armored vehicles, originally ordered for the Canadian Army, to Ukraine. The Armoured Combat Support Vehicles had just been built and were rolling off the assembly line at General Dynamics Land Systems’ location in London, Ontario.

Dan Le Bouthillier, the spokesman with the National Defence Department, said a new contract between Canada and General Dynamics for $165 million was signed for 39 ACSVs. The funding will come from the CA$500 million (U.S. $371 million) that the government set aside to support the purchase of military equipment for Ukraine.
The vehicles sent to Ukraine were troop cargo variants and were originally part of the 360-vehicle purchase.

Bison Life Extension and Re-Role Program


Bild
In 2003, our team at DEW Engineering and Development ULC was awarded a contract to provide life-extension and re-role services for 198 Bison vehicles.

The basic Infantry Section Carrier vehicles were re-roled to operate in one of six different variants, including:
  • AMB – Ambulance
  • C3I – Command, Control, Communication & Intelligence
  • EW – Electronic Warfare
  • MRT – Mobile Repair Team
  • MRV – Mobile Recovery Vehicle
  • NBCD – Nuclear Biological Chemical Defence
We undertook the lead effort for the re-role and upgrade of these vehicles in both our Miramichi and Ottawa facilities from 2003 to 2007, and finally lasting into 2010 as the program called for additional support to the Canadian government.

Beginning with full vehicle disassembly, our engineers and technicians undertook an efficient and effective process to transform these 198 vehicles for the Canadian Armed Forces in order to provide added operational capability to the Canadian Army in Afghanistan.
