GRIFFON - Armored Multi-Role Vehcile
Using three IRTS A4R rugged displays
Griffon is used by several national defense forces. Its mission is to transport troops and to support the combined inter-army tactical group in the contact zone. The vehicle is based on a 6×6 commercial all-terrain truck chassis and will carry up to eight infantry soldiers. The Griffon is equipped with a remote weapons station that can be armed with a machine gun, or a 40 mm automatic grenade launcher.
JAGUAR - Armored Reconnaissance and Combat Vehicle
Using the IRTS A4R multi-functional display
The Jaguar is built with STANAG 4569 Level 4 armor protection. The 6x6 type wheeled vehicle has an overpressure system to maintain constant overpressure in the armored troop compartment to protect it against chemical, biological and radiological threats. The Jaguar's primary weapons, mounted in a two-man turret, are a 40 mm cannon, two anti-tank guided missiles and a remote controlled machine gun.
SERVAL - Light multi role armored vehicle
Using two IRTS rugged displays
Complementing the heavier Griffon armored vehicle, Serval is 4-wheeled and can be used to transport light infantry and reconnaissance units. The Serval is designed to operate in contact zones on the battlefield. It is particularly maneuverable and will primarily equip infantry units of light brigades and rapid reaction forces.
