The ZA-SpN TITAN 4x4 armored vehicle features a pickup configuration with a V-shaped mine-resistant monocoque armored hull and anti-blast seats for the crew and mounted troops. The TITAN can be equipped with a remotely operated weapon station (ROWS) that includes a 2A42 30mm automatic cannon, a Kalashnikov PKTM 7.62mm coaxial machine gun, and a Konkurs anti-tank guided missile system. This ROWS enables engagement of various targets up to distances of 2,000 meters, whether moving or stationary.

The TITAN's modular protection can be enhanced with applique armor plates or bar-slat armor/nets as per customer request. Features such as independent suspension, a diesel engine, a central tire inflation system, a winch, and an air cooler provide high levels of comfort and all-terrain capability for operations in rugged terrains. The TITAN has a total loaded weight of 13,650 kg and a payload capacity of 1,450 kg. Its dimensions are 6,280 mm in length, 2,550 mm in height, and 3,500 mm in width, with seating for five. The engine produces 350 horsepower, enabling a top speed of 100 km/h and a range of 800 kilometers. It meets Level III STANAG 4569 standards for ballistic protection and Levels 2a/2b of the same standard for mine protection, withstanding TNT charges.

The vehicle's interior accommodates five seats for the driver and soldiers, with a double seat in the first row and three seats in the second. Due to a machine gun turret, the central seat is shifted backward. All seats are equipped with five-point safety belts and energy-absorbing elements to mitigate the effects of detonations. Access to the cabin is through two pairs of side doors, with the side elements featuring bulletproof glass. The absence of an armored roof reduces the structure's weight, facilitating the installation of additional weaponry.
