The IBD Group of Germany is proud to be member of the Textron team which is the winner of the Canadian TAPV (Tactical Armoured Patrol Vehicle) program.

The TAPV 4x4 vehicle is the successor of the Armored Security Vehicle (ASV4x4).
     

The TAPV is intended to overcome the aforementioned deficiencies in capabilities as well as fulfill future operational concept requirements. Changes in recent years to the threats facing the CF on operations have led to an increased attention on protection.

The TAPV 4x4 vehicle is the successor of the Armored Security Vehicle (ASV4x4). More than 3,000 units were built with IBD armor. The TAPV proved to be one of the best protected and reliable vehicles under the extreme conditions in Afghanistan and Iraq.

IBD provided the TAPV with an advanced protection solution against ballistic and mine/IED-threats. The solution uses IBD’s latest NANOTech-products such as nanometric steel and composite technologies. These technologies, already integrated on a large number of other vehicles, have a proven service record of highest performance while reducing the overall protection weight to a minimum.
