MRAP = Mine-Resistant Ambush-Protective vehicles,
至車軍在伊拉克不斷受IED 路邊炸彈攻擊, 使裝甲悍馬HUMMER已不能應付, 為止取用南非的防雷裝甲車之設計
研發新的多用途軍用車, 附有防雷防爆功能. 成新一代MRAP 車.
BAE Systems' third MRAP vehicle, called Caiman, is based on the ultra-reliable Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles (FMTV) platform and the combat-proven Low Signature Armored Cab (LSAC). The resulting Category I / Category II 6x6 Caiman MRAP vehicles incorporate the demonstrated performance of these components into a highly survivable and one of the most sustainable MRAP vehicles available today. With 95 percent parts commonality with the standard FMTV models, the Caiman MRAPs will maintain the same levels of readiness, mobility, serviceability, and worldwide support as the more than 36,000 FMTVs already fielded.
