The vehicles provide superior levels of ballistic and mine blast protection.
Marauder is designed to carry a crew of ten fully equipped personnel and can be configured as a wheeled troop carrier or a combat vehicle by the addition of a range of turret-mounted weaponry.
Maverick is a highly versatile vehicle designed for use by internal security and police forces and provides interior space for security equipment, such as anti-riot gear, surveillance equipment, water cannons, ramps for SWAT teams and bomb disposal robots.
The vehicle provides optimal situational awareness and protection from projectiles and improvised explosive devices (IEDs).
