During its unveiling, NIMR’s CEO Dr. Fahad Saif Harhara said, “We have listened carefully to the special operations community and incorporated their combat experience into the design and development of this light and powerful 4x4 rapid intervention vehicle. The NIMR RIV is our most modern special forces platform available.”

A joint-develoment project, the RIV was engineered by MIRA with NIMR producing the vehicle in UAE. MIRA is a leading independent engineering company specialising in delivering automotive technology to the defence sector.

The NIMR RIV uses speed and agility as a critical advantage to enable a crew of four to quickly traverse various terrains in all operational environments. It is equipped with under-body blast protection and modular applique armour packs for ballistic protection, greatly increasing crew survivability without sacrificing mobility.The NIMR RIV can be transported either by fast ground transit or helicopter; underslung or inside a CH-47.

“It addresses a critical mission need for a high-speed, easily transportable vehicle that can quickly respond to tactical situations in remote sites. NIMR’s offering not only expands the NIMR vehicle range, but also allows us to maintain a competitive edge,’’ Dr. Fahad added.

Evolving industry trends around irregular warfare has seen the special operator community demand specialised vehicles with greater crossover of mission requirements and capabilities. NIMR has already addressed this critical gap through the development of the industry-leading AJBAN LRSOV, an open-top 4x4 long-range reconnaissance vehicle, first unveiled at IDEX 2015 and which is now in service with the UAE Armed Forces.

The RIV addresses a bespoke set of operational requirements that enables eliteunits to successfully carry out covert operationswithout alerting enemy or insurgent forces.

The RIV and LRSOV, along with the full range of NIMR products have been designed for the local, regional and international markets, and are fully customisable based on operational environments and specific user requirements.

NIMR Automotive, a subsidiary of the Emirates Defence Industry Company (EDIC) delivers highly capable wheeled military vehicles that are designed for the harshest environments, across a diverse scope of mission requirements.

NIMR’s range of desert-proven 4x4 and 6x6 vehicles are available in armoured or non-armoured configurations, with modular configurable crew capacity and payload, where protection and mobility is the focus of our design activities.

Through engineering innovation, comprehensive testing and implementation of the highest standards in design and manufacturing NIMR provides exceptional vehicle reliability and best-in-class desert performance to ensure the protection of the vehicle crews that use them.
