The RILA 6x6 IFV (Infantry Fighting Vehicle) is a multi-role wheeled armored vehicle engineered for versatility in combat and peacekeeping missions. With a weight range of 15,000 to 18,000 kg, the vehicle strikes a balance between armor protection and mobility. It measures 7.20 meters in length, 2.82 meters in width, and 3.5 meters in height, providing ample space for both crew and troops. The vehicle is configured to accommodate a crew of three (commander, driver, and gunner) and can transport up to six additional personnel, making it an ideal solution for mechanized infantry units.
The RILA 6x6 IFV is designed for high-intensity combat, equipped with a 90mm cannon or a 25-30mm automatic cannon as its primary weapon. This makes it highly effective against enemy armored vehicles and fortified positions. For additional firepower, the vehicle can be fitted with a secondary weapon system, including 7.62mm or 12.7mm machine guns, as well as an Anti-Tank Guided Missile (ATGM) system, providing enhanced anti-armor capability.
IAG has integrated high-performance diesel engines into the RILA 6x6 IFV, with options ranging between 9L and 13L, generating a power output between 450 and 540 horsepower. This allows the vehicle to achieve speeds of over 100 km/h, ensuring rapid deployment and maneuverability across different terrains. The IFV boasts an impressive operational range of 600 km at an average speed of 80 km/h, making it highly suitable for extended missions without the need for frequent refueling. Designed for rugged and extreme environments, the RILA 6x6 can tackle a 60% gradient and 30% side slope, cross a 2-meter trench, and ford water obstacles up to 1.5 meters deep. A central tire inflation system enhances performance on rough terrains, while run-flat 395/85/20 tires ensure continued mobility even in the event of tire damage.
To ensure battlefield survivability, the RILA 6x6 IFV incorporates STANAG 4569 ballistic protection, offering resistance against small arms fire, artillery shell splinters, and mines. It meets AEP-55 Vol 1 Level 3 and AEP-55 Vol 2 Level 4A/4B standards, protecting the crew and troops from mine blasts and IEDs. Additionally, blast-attenuating seats provide extra safety by reducing the impact of explosions.
The RILA 6x6 IFV is designed with modern combat systems to improve mission efficiency. Available optional features include a hydraulic winch for vehicle recovery, a fire suppression system for added safety, and CBRN (Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear) protection for operations in hazardous environments. The vehicle is also equipped with a Battle Management System (BMS) for real-time tactical coordination, 360° video and night vision cameras for enhanced situational awareness, and an Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) to maintain operational systems without running the main engine. Additionally, a 24V electrical system supports integrated mission electronics.
With the unveiling of the RILA 6x6 IFV at IDEX 2025, International Armored Group (IAG) reinforces its position as a leader in the development of modern wheeled combat vehicles. Offering a combination of firepower, protection, and mobility, the RILA 6x6 is an ideal solution for military forces seeking a robust and adaptable infantry fighting vehicle. Stay tuned for more updates from IDEX 2025, as we continue to cover the latest advancements in defense technology and military hardware.
