The ISAS will help the Ocelot vehicle, known as Foxhound, to achieve the mobility requirements of the British Army in all terrains.
The Ocelot is a four-by-four armoured vehicle designed by FPE and Ricardo, which can carry six troops and their equipment.
Deliveries are scheduled to be completed in early 2012.
