The JERRV EOD 4x4 has adequate armor protection and possesses the capability to carry all required EOD equipment. The Cougar JERRV 4x4 has a V-shaped hull, that extends to the engine bay which increase the protection for the crew against blast forces of IEDs or land mines explosions. The vertical armor will stop 7.62 x 51mm ball ammunition, and the windows will stop AP. The vehicles can withstand up to 30lbs. TNT under any wheel or 15lbs. under the V-shaped centerline. Among the minor differences between the Cougar and the JERRV, the Cougar has firing ports while the JERRV does not.

The EOD vehicles carry an assortment of EOD equipment, such as bomb disposal robots, and all the other gear needed for EOD work, including 70-pound bomb suits. The JERRV also has multiple optical camera capabilities providing day and night vision, as well as forward looking infra-red technology that allows better visibility of the surroundings. The JERRV air conditioning system has been criticized. It recirculates air in the passenger compartment which does not work well in the extreme heat of Iraq and Afghanistan.
