French armoured vehicle maker Arquus said it has launched a new range of logistics and tactical trucks, designed and produced in France. The ARMIS 4×4, ARMIS 6×6 and ARMIS 8×8 are built on fully military drivelines, developed by Arquus, and are designed to “overcome the most demanding terrains and conditions,” the company said.
“The ARMIS new generation vehicles can fulfil all logistical and tactical missions of the army, from troop, systems, water tank or mobile workshop transport to vehicle repair and tow truck. Compatible with all Scorpion equipment, the ARMIS also accommodate new-generation communication and information systems, as well as armaments such as the Hornet Remote-Controlled Weapon System, selected by the French Army as common equipment for all the vehicles of the Scorpion program. The ARMIS 4×4 and 6×6 are equipped with specific variants of the Griffon and Jaguar vehicles’ engines,” the company said.
ARMIS trucks are available in several configurations, allowing for effectiveness, simplicity of use and tactical flexibility for the commander on the field. Depending on the mission at hand, they can be equipped with non-protected or protected cabins, compliant with STANAG 4569. Evolutionary, they can adapt to the operational needs and the threats met on the battlefield.
The ARMIS can be equipped with the automation solutions currently being developed by Arquus, such as platooning and automatic convoys. They may be fitted with the group’s solutions in the fields of energy optimisation and maintenance. The new ARMIS range has been developed taking into account the needs of army maintenance and logistics operators.
