Oshkosh Defense announced on January 13 2026 that the Netherlands Ministry of Defence has placed a new order for Dutch Expeditionary Patrol Vehicles (DXPV), the company’s “Kaaiman” platform, valued at $25 million to $30 million. The contract includes two DXPV training kits to support the Dutch Armed Forces’ readiness initiatives.
The Netherlands has been modernizing its light‑tactical vehicle fleet to improve rapid‑deployment capabilities, and the DXPV’s open‑systems architecture allows it to integrate emerging technologies without extensive redesign. This order follows earlier Dutch purchases of the platform, underscoring the country’s continued confidence in Oshkosh’s mobility solutions.
Oshkosh’s 2024 annual revenue was approximately $10.7 billion, so the new contract represents roughly 0.25 % to 0.30 % of total sales. While modest in dollar terms, the order adds a meaningful revenue stream to the company’s Transport segment and demonstrates sustained demand for its purpose‑built military vehicles.
The contract expands Oshkosh’s presence in the European defense market, a strategic growth area for the company. Securing a new order from a key NATO partner signals confidence in Oshkosh’s product line and positions the firm for future opportunities in the region.
Overall, the $25‑30 million order is a modest but significant milestone that supports Oshkosh’s broader strategy of expanding its defense footprint in allied markets and reinforces its reputation as a trusted mobility partner.
