FMTV Prototypes (Tactical Truck Corporation, Teledyne Continental Motors)

[Winston]

What information is available on these two competitors to the Stewart & Stevenson?

Three firms competed for this program. In October
1988, Phase I development contracts were awarded to
Tactical Truck Corporation (a joint venture of General
Motors and BMY Wheeled Vehicles), Teledyne
Continental Motors, and Stewart & Stevenson. These
developmental contracts were completed in January
1991 and, following durability, performance, troop, and
other evaluations, the Stewart & Stevenson entrant was
selected in October 1991. The winning entry is based on
the then-Steyr Antriebstechnik (Austria) model 12 M 18
truck.

Anyone have more info on the other competitors?

Edit: I remember reading somewhere about a GMC-Man proposal for the HEMTT, and I believe Oshkosh had a MTVR derivative for the FMTV requirement.
