SAIC Amphibious Combat Vehicle 1.1
Ingenuity to Sustain and Modernize Your Operations
Designed for the U.S. Marine Corps, the SAIC® Amphibious Combat Vehicle (ACV)
1.1 supports U.S. Marine expeditionary operations no matter the mission. Our
ACV 1.1 is an enhanced 8x8 wheeled, armored, amphibious vehicle with improved
mobility that protects U.S. Marines. SAIC’s ACV 1.1 optimized size balances lift
requirements and its embarkation footprint maximizes the surface connector and
self-deployment landing plans to lighten the Marine Air Ground Task Force (MAGTF).
SAIC, with team member ST Kinetics, developed a solution that expands the
maneuver space across littoral, land, and inland water environments.
Mobility on Land and in Water
On land, SAIC ACV 1.1’s independent suspension system offers enhanced ground mobility and improves ride
quality for Marines over the roughest terrain. Its Central Tire Inflation System enables automated inflation and
deflation of tires to accommodate different terrain while on the move. Additionally, skid steering and largefootprint, off-road tires enhance maneuverability in diverse terrain.
During water operations, our ACV 1.1 uses hydraulically driven propulsion systems with fully independent thrust
to safely swim at Sea-State 3 and through six-foot plunging surf. Additionally, force protection improvements
enable ship-to-shore swim at full protection level with a full combat load.
