In addition to the features of the MXT-MVU, the MXT-MVA has a strong frame design that provides the ability for various levels of up-armoring. And even with the extra weight of the armor, the MXT-MVA has superior maneuvering, hauling and braking capability. The MXT-MVA is also capable of carrying missile systems and other essential combat supplies. Responding to evolving threats in Afghanistan, the U.K. Ministry of Defense selected Navistar to supply tactical wheeled vehicles. The International MXT based units were procured through the U.K. Tactical Support Vehicle (TSV) program and are called the Husky. The MXT-MV (Husky TSV) is a lighter and more mobile vehicle, specially designed to navigate the rough Afghan terrain, while offering added protection from ballistics fire, mines and Improvised Explosive Devises (IEDs).
