l'entretien en exploitation
Explanation:
line maintenance = maintenance done while the vehicle is in normal use.
for an aircraft: maintenance between two flights, as opposed to the maintenance in hangar, when the aircraft is taken off normal use.

In this ST it's about the "line maintenance" of land vehicles used for Army training, i.e. the regular maintenance while vehicles are kept in normal use (= "en exploitation")

disagree  Daryo: Army’s training delivery = "delivery" of TRAINING, not of any vehicles (a case of typical "management speak")

disagree  Tony M: As Daryo says, there's nothing about 'production line' here, nor about vehicle delivery.
