The contract also includes the supply of the RG32M series 3 variant, which provides a higher payload, increased power and enhanced protection levels.
The RG32M series 3 is currently undergoing tests at BAE Systems facilities in South Africa.
Delivery of 15 standard RG32M vehicles is expected to be complete this year, while the series 3 variant will be delivered in early 2011.
The RG32M mine-hardened patrol vehicle features an armoured monocoque hull that protects the crew against small arms fire, grenades, anti-personnel mines and land mine detonations.
