The PLS is the backbone of
the Army's distribution and resupply system. Built to
carry ammunition and other critical supplies needed
in battle, the PLS has proven its ability in front-line
resupply missions in Bosnia, Kosovo, Afghanistan and
Iraq. This truck and trailer system can load and unload
a wide range of cargo without the need for other material
handling equipment. A single operator uses the hydraulically
powered hook arm to lift various flatracks or containers
on or off the truck in less than one minute, and off
the truck and trailer in less than five minutes. Today's
mobile military force can only move as fast as its supplies.
The PLS ensures forces can move wherever and whenever
the mission demands.
Dramatically expand the mission profiles
of your PLS chassis with Engineering Mission Modules (EMMs)
from Oshkosh Corporation. Engineered and built to meet
the same level of performance as the PLS, the EMMs load on
the truck like any cargo container and tap into the trucks
electrical, pneumatic and hydraulic systems through the
Universal Power Interface Kit (UPIK). These modules are
designed for a wide variety of operations, including building
and repairing roads, fire fighting, construction details,
and more. The EMMs are built to handle the most exetreme conditions,
and the most demanding duties, significantly increasing the
capabilities of any PLS chassis. Ensure your forces are always
prepared for the challenges they face in the field; give them
the ability to accomplish any mission with EMMs from Oshkosh.
Keep your forces at peak readiness
with the Oshkosh PLS.
