For Eurosatory, AM General partnered with Elta North America, to upfit the vehicle with a mobile Counter Unmanned Aircraft System (C-UAS) that is designed to track, identify, and deter/defeat various UAS while the vehicle is in motion. Additionally, the vehicle features MBrace®, an advanced occupant protection system by IMMI, to add head and neck protection during adverse events. Finally, the vehicle also features innovative electronics from ArmorWorks that allows for enhanced situational awareness with multiple field view options with thermal and infrared camera operation. The technology insertions by leading industry partners add higher levels of security and survivability to an already rugged, mobile, and highly protected light tactical vehicle.
