About
Oshkosh Defense designs, manufactures and supports military vehicles as a business of Oshkosh Corporation. Its offering spans light through heavy vehicle platforms, with lifecycle support and technologies intended to improve mobility, payload, protection and interoperability. The defense business draws on the wider corporation’s manufacturing, engineering and supply-chain capabilities, but groupwide factory counts and commercial revenues are not defense-only figures. Oshkosh’s role combines original vehicle production with fleet sustainment and modernization. Product families and contract generations need to be tracked separately: a vehicle remaining in military service does not necessarily mean the original manufacturer still holds the newest production award. Relevant careers include manufacturing, vehicle engineering, quality and field support.
