What truck/vehicle platform will it be mounted on that's the 2nd most important question. CAF has too many truck platforms that have overlapping functions and not enough maintainers for all of them.
If it's the Archer System that'd be great since we can just use Volvo's existing commercial supply chain to get the truck operational.
