The M-ATV is a highly mobile combat vehicle featuring the TAK-4 independent suspension system that provides 70% off-road mission profile capability.
The SandCat is a lightweight and versatile protected vehicle that features a durable modular armour system designed to meet a mission’s threat level and payload requirements.
Both vehicles feature an advanced armour system developed by the Oshkosh subcontractor Plasan, a designer and manufacturer of combat-proven armour solutions.
The integration of the armour systems to the protected vehicles will be accomplished by JLG, a division of Oshkosh Corporation which also provides integrated logistics support for the programme.
