More USMC MRAP contracts

According to this article Navistar International was awarded a contract by the US Navy to provide maintenance support for USMC MRAP vehicles. This contract is to provide parts and most likely Contractor Logistics Support (CLS) for the many vehicles that are being used in Iraq and Afghanistan. The contract value is over $700 M. It again illustrates that modern systems are not only expensive to procure but to maintain which opens up a whole new venue to defense contractors.
