Artist's conception of the Recovery and Maintenance Vehicle
The Future Combat Systems Recovery and Maintenance Vehicle (FRMV) is the recovery and maintenance system for employment within both the Unit of Action (UA) and Unit of Employment (UE) and contributes to sustaining and generating combat power to the Future Force structure. Each Unit of Action (UA) will have a small number of 2-3 man Combat Repair Teams within the organic Forward Support Battalion (FSB) to perform field maintenance requirements beyond the capabilities of the crew chief/crew, more in-depth Battle Damage Assessment Repair (BDAR), and limited recovery operations. The Recovery and Maintenance Vehicle (FRMV) is designed to hold a crew of three with additional space for three additional recovered crew. The Recovery and Maintenance Vehicle (FRMV) has a Close Combat Support Weapon (CCSW) and Mk-19mm grenade launcher.
