Program Executive Officer (PEO) Land Systems
(LS) Marine Corps, located at historic Hospital Point, Building 2211, Marine Corps Base
Quantico, Va., is the Corps’ first PEO and is comprised of eight weapons systems programs.
PEO LS is a separate command, reporting directly to the Assistant Secretary of the Navy
for Research Development and Acquisition ASN (RDA). PEO LS’ integral relationship with
Marine Corps Systems Command (MARCORSYSCOM)
(http://www.marcorsyscom.usmc.mil) leverages infrastructure, competencies and
technical authority.
PEO LS manages a diverse program management
portfolio which includes the Marine Corps’ largest ground acquisition program, the
Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle (EFV), an Acquisition Category ID (ACAT ID) program. The
EFV is the next generation amphibious forcible entry capability for the Marine Corps.
The PEO LS’ versatility is reflected in two command and control (C2) programs: Common
Aviation Command and Control System (CAC2S) and Ground-Air Task Oriented Radar (G/ATOR).
Also included are ground programs such as the Logistics Vehicle System Replacement (LVSR),
Lightweight 155mm Towed Howitzer (LW 155), Medium Tactical Vehicle Replacement (MTVR),
Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV) and Marine Personnel Carrier (MPC). The monetary
value of these programs across the Future Years Defense Program (FYDP) is approximately
$9 billion.
