The US Army is partnering with industry and academia on a multi-phase CTMA initiative to develop a framework for future sustainment after the US divestiture of the M1A1 through continued US Army development of common components, with unique component development being the responsibility of the new users. This phase will build upon the lessons from the previous phases and analyze how upgrades and integration of vehicle subsystems impact full system product lifecycle performance for vehicle fleets.
