Iveco is showing a number of products including: 2x Tracker
6x6 trucks, 1x Tracker 8x8 trucks, 1x Astra 6x6, 1x Ducato
4x4 Van and 1x Iveco Massif Santana truck. The company will
also be exhibiting an armoured cab system. The Iveco BAE
Panther vehicles will be exhibited on the BAE Stand.
Panther, the British Army’s command and liaison vehicle
(CLV), assembled and integrated by BAE Systems at its facility
in Newcastle upon Tyne, North East Based on a chassis designed
by Iveco in Italy, Panther CLV is designed for strategic
and tactical mobility with a high level of protection against
anti-tank and anti-personnel mines. It also provides operators
with a lower vehicle profile while still giving a high level
of crew protection.
The most recent addition to the vehicle range is the Medium
Multirole Vehicle (MMV). This highly mobile off-road 4x4
truck combines a payload capability of up to six tonnes with
the capability to provide ballistic protection for the complete
cab using the same dual role technology principles as LMV.
Available with three engine power ratings, three wheelbase
lengths and with manual or automatic transmissions the versatile
MMV can be tailored to meet a wide variety of military uses.
Metalurgica de Santa Ana (later to become Santana Motor
SA), was the Spanish engineering company that signed a deal
with Rover Company to build Land Rovers under licence. The
first were built in 1958 from CKD kits, but local content
was gradually increased until the Santanas were 100 per cent
locally manufactured. Iveco has signed a marketing deal with
Santana whereby Santana vehicles will be badged ‘Iveco’ and
supplied with Iveco engines ands gearboxes. Iveco has expressed
an interest in supplying vehicles to a number of military
customers including the U.K. MoD. More details will be available
at DVD.

International is showing its new MXT-MVA (Military Vehicle
- Armored) at the OFF ROAD AREA next to MAN and will be
bringing three vehicles, 2 MXT’s (one ARMORED, one
SOFT SKIN), and our MINE PROTECTD VEHICLE.
The MXT vehicle was first shown for the first time at the
U.S. Army’s Aberdeen Proving Grounds and has since
been down-selected as a contender for the JLTV Program to
replace the HMMV against Lockheed’s HMT vehicle. The
MXT-MVA is an all-terrain, armored wheeled vehicle platform
designed to provide a new level of ballistics and blast protection
on the battlefield and against the new threat of Improvised
Explosive Devices (IEDs). It is a derivative of the MXT 4x4
Pickup which makes an ideal base as it is so big that the
crew cab can seat five sumo wrestlers with ease (providing
one of them can drive) and the tray can carry a jet ski or
a motorcycle with the tailgate up. Not surprisingly, the
MXT-MVA can handle the weight of the armor with ease, especially
over long distances, rugged terrain and when manoeuvrability
is critical. Powered by a 300-horsepower International V8
diesel engine with 530 lb.-ft. of torque, additional armor
does not adversely affect the vehicle's superior payload
ability, towing capacity or durability. The cab can be configured
to fit as many as six crew members in full gear, while the
body of the MXT-MVA is versatile enough to accommodate an
array of weapons, navigation and communications systems and
applications such as convoy protection, field shelter, ambulance
and communications units, which are seamlessly integrated
with the company's proprietary multiplexed electrical system.
International Military and Government LLC (IMG) is a wholly
owned subsidiary of International Truck and Engine Corporation,
and has collaborated extensively with established armor providers
and military development engineers within the US Army Tank-Automotive
Research, Development and Engineering Centers (TARDEC) National
Automotive Center to develop the right armor solutions for
the full spectrum of military operations.
International has gone from Defense Segment sales of six
vehicles in 2004 to 17000 in 2006 and is supplying vehicles
to Afghanistan and Iraq.
