The company said it is seeing growing interest in the BATT vehicle, with additional requests recently received from customers in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Egypt, Libya, India, Argentina, Brazil and Mexico.
The BATT vehicles, designed to meet the needs of law enforcement agencies, can be designed for rural, urban, or a combination of both scenarios, and includes vehicle protection levels that range from non-armoured, NIJ III/B6, NIJ IV/B7(including the .50 Caliber Ball Round) and higher if required.
Robert Pazderka, president and founder, TAG, said: ‘We have seen an increased demand for our BATT family of vehicles because of their unparalleled performance, protection, deployment options, operational capabilities and affordability, when compared to other similar armoured vehicles of its’ kind.’
