Allison Transmission to Supply 4040 MX™ Transmissions for BAE Systems Hägglunds CV90 MkIV Vehicles
Allison Transmission Holdings, Inc. recently announced that it has entered into a contract with BAE Systems Hägglunds to supply 4040 MX™ transmissions for the company’s CV90 MkIV infantry fighting vehicles. The US$250 million ($355 million) agreement, formalized at the Eurosatory defense exhibition in Paris, includes an option for additional units valued at US$50 million ($71 million). The agreement is the largest single tracked defense program contract in Allison Transmission's history. The CV90 MkIV program serves as the inaugural production platform for Allison’s 4040 MX transmission, and production deliveries are scheduled to begin in 2028. Engineered as an evolution of the proven 3040 MX, the new 4040 MX cross-drive transmission delivers increased power ratings and updated electronic controls while maintaining the existing 3040 MX spatial footprint, allowing for seamless integration with the vehicle's Scania engine. Allison conducted extensive integration testing with BAE Systems Hägglunds over a two-year period to ensure the new solution is mission ready. “The integration and selection of Allison's 4040 MX cross-drive transmission into the CV90 MkIV is a critical milestone in delivering increased mobility and performance,” said Tommy Gustafsson-Rask, president at BAE Systems Hägglunds. “This contract highlights our mutual commitment to providing robust solutions that meet the evolving operational requirements of the armed forces.” |
