BAE Systems won a $10 million contract from the U.S. Government for commercial armored SUVs and pick-up trucks.
Designed to be inconspicuous and indistinguishable from their unarmored counterparts, commercial armored vehicles can be tailored to specific customer needs, incorporating mission-specific features.
“With the current growth in areas of conflict, we are seeing global demand for commercial armored vehicles continuing to keep pace, ” said Don Dutton, Vice President with BAE Systems’ Security & Survivability business. “Because they’re designed to blend in with local, indigenous cultures, and they send out a decidedly different ‘message’ than military-style vehicles, we’re seeing more and more commercial armored vehicles being used, both here in the U.S. and abroad, ” added Dutton.
