PIRANHA 5

PIRANHA 5 was selected for FRES UV in 2009: the genesis of the UK’s Mechanised Infantry Vehicle (MIV) programme.

PIRANHA 5 is an exceptionally mobile and flexible platform with a very high free payload enabling high levels of add-on ballistic protection and significant growth throughout its life. At 33t GVW, the PIRANHA 5 has superior mobility through fourth axle steering, a versatile economic driveline, hydro-pneumatic suspension and large 16R20 tyres.

In addition to the very high level of IED, mine and ballistic protection, the PIRANHA 5 provides the soldiers with a spacious, flexible and comfortable interior for up to 12 soldiers.

PIRANHA 5 has been chosen by Denmark to form the backbone of the Danish Army with deliveries starting in late 2017. PIRANHA 5 has also been selected by Spain for the modernisation of the Armed Forces.

Stryker DVH

The Stryker Double-V Hull (DVH) is a modernised version of the combat-proven Stryker family of 8x8 vehicles that will be in-service with the US Army in 2017. The Stryker DVH encapsulates survivability lessons learnt from operations in Iraq and Afghanistan.
