The vehicle proposed by Supacat offers capability improvements that include firepower, protection, capacity, operability and safety.

The REDFIN 1B vehicle is similar to the Nary HMT fleet, which was delivered to the DMO by Supacat in October 2009.

The DMO is expected to finalise the successful bidder by the end of this year.

Supacat has delivered over 500 HMT vehicles, including Jackal and Coyote models, to the DMO and the UK Ministry of Defence for use in Afghanistan.
