Oshkosh Defense to Showcase Combat-Proven JLTV at International Armoured Vehicles Conference

Key Terms

joint light tactical vehicle technical

A joint light tactical vehicle is a military-grade, armored transport designed to carry troops, cargo and mission equipment while offering protection from small arms fire and roadside bombs; think of it as a heavy-duty pickup truck built for combat. It matters to investors because these vehicles are bought in large, long-term government contracts that create steady revenue for manufacturers, sustain parts and service businesses, and influence defense industry valuations.

jltv technical

Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV) is a family of military trucks designed to protect troops and carry cargo while being more survivable and mobile than older light armored vehicles. For investors, JLTV programs matter because they involve long-term government contracts, predictable production schedules and significant spending on parts and maintenance—similar to how a recurring service contract can provide steady revenue for a company.

original equipment manufacturer technical

An original equipment manufacturer (OEM) is a company that designs and builds parts or complete products that other firms sell under their own brand name, like a bakery making cakes that coffee shops rebrand and sell. Investors care because OEMs often win steady, long-term contracts, predictable production volumes and thin but scalable profit margins, so changes in their order book or supply chain can signal future revenue and risk for both the OEM and the brands that rely on it.

oem technical

OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer, which is a company that produces parts or components used in the final products made by other companies. For investors, understanding OEMs is important because their performance can impact the supply chain and overall success of major industries, especially those relying on specialized parts. Think of OEMs as the suppliers that provide the building blocks for larger products, like the engine parts for a car.

direct commercial sales financial

Direct commercial sales are purchases of a company’s products or services made straight by end customers or businesses, without passing through distributors, agents, or wholesalers. For investors this matters because cutting out middlemen usually brings clearer, faster revenue, tighter control over pricing and customer data, and often higher profit margins—similar to a farmer selling produce at a local market instead of through a grocery chain.

forward-looking statements regulatory

Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.
