Located in the town of Samokov, the plant will manufacture various types of armored vehicles in order to meet the needs of the army and police. The vehicles produced by the plant will respect the latest NATO standards.

Last week, Bulgaria's government decided to ask the Parliament to approve the budget for the proposed acquisition of 150 armored vehicles meeting NATO standards and to build national industrial capacity to support the life cycle of the acquired equipment and weapons.
