On Apr 10, the Marine Corps took a historic step in its modernization journey with the establishment of the Portfolio Acquisition Executive-Marine Corps (PAE-MC). This new organization replaces Program Executive Office Land Systems (PEO-LS) and incorporates programs from Marine Corps Systems Command (MCSC), marking a significant transformation in how the Marine Corps develops and delivers capabilities to its warfighters.

Previously, Marine Corps program offices integrating new systems onto the Joint Light Tactical Vehicle faced significant logistical challenges. The process involved requesting a vehicle from Program Executive Officer Land Systems’ (PEO LS) Program Manager Motor Transport (PM Motor-T), costly and complex vehicle shipments, and potential roadblocks to project deadlines because of vehicle availability constraints. This system created inefficiencies and drove up costs.
The Marine Corps awarded General Dynamics Land Systems and Textron Systems Corporation a second Rapid Prototyping phase for the Advanced Reconnaissance Vehicle. Both vendors will be building and delivering their respective solutions to meet the USMC requirement for an ARV Command, Control, Communications, and Computers Unmanned Aerial System (ARV-C4UAS), 30mm Autocannon (ARV-30), Logistics (ARV-LOG) Pre-Production vehicles.
