The Urovesa VAMTAC SK95 truck is built on a modified VAMTAC ST5 chassis. This vehicle is the first cargo development manufactured by the company since its 4x4 Humvee-like vehicle was unveiled at Eurosatory 2008 in Paris.

No detailed technical specifications for the SK95 have been officially announced so far but the diesel engine develops between 188 and 2018 hp and is associated with an Allison 6-speed automatic transmission. The permanent all-wheel-drive system benefits from a 100% differential lock and independent suspension on all four wheels.
