Through the Medium Support Vehicle System (MSVS) Project, the Government of Canada acquired a new fleet of medium capacity logistics trucks for the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) to replace its fleet of Medium Logistics Vehicle Wheeled (MLVW) trucks in service since the 1980s. In addition, the project acquired new ISO container-based mobile workspaces or “kitted shelters” that provide medical, dental, workshop, field kitchen, command post capabilities among others.

These new trucks and ancillary equipment provide lift and logistical support on the ground, and transport equipment and supplies where they are needed most both at home and abroad.
