Common Tactical Truck (CTT) Industry Communications Forum Presentation with Question and Answer (Q&A) and Videos

The Department of the Army has posted a Special Notice on March 25, 2026, regarding the Common Tactical Truck (CTT) Industry Communications Forum. This notice provides industry reference materials, including video recordings of a presentation and question-and-answer session, along with a comprehensive Q&A document addressing industry inquiries about the CTT program. The posting serves as supplementary documentation to support the formal CTT Increment 1 Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) solicitation, identified as CTT-008. Rather than constituting a binding solicitation itself, this special notice distributes informational resources to help potential contractors understand program objectives and government expectations. The notice is categorized under Heavy Duty Truck Manufacturing (NAICS 336120) and Combat, Assault, and Tactical Vehicles—Wheeled (PSC 2355).

The CTT program seeks to replace legacy Heavy Tactical Vehicle (HTV) and related fleet capabilities through commercial or Non-Developmental Item (NDI) solutions. Phase 1 requires all interested offerors to submit a white paper solution brief by April 6, 2026, accompanied by Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) pricing detailing unit costs by vehicle variant. The truck must meet specific technical requirements, including air transportability via C5 and C17 aircraft, a modular swappable cab design, 60 kW of exportable High Voltage Direct Current power, an 18.5 short-ton payload capacity for the Logistics Support variant, and compliance with rail mobility standards. Selected Phase 1 submissions may advance to Phase 2 and Phase 3, with contract award anticipated in Q1 FY2027. Offerors may submit multiple solution briefs representing separate and distinct concepts, each with corresponding ROM submissions, without constraint to their current commercially available or NDI offerings.
