The Patria AMV has been developed to provide optimal modularity of components and to be adaptable for a wide range of versions without changes in basic vehicle systems. Versions are based on four hull models. Already, Patria holds contracts for approximately 1,400 vehicles – to Finland, Poland, and now also Sweden.
Patria Nemo offers speed and efficiency in fire missions
Patria is the global market leader in turreted mortar systems. The Patria Nemo provides both direct and indirect fire support offering high firepower. Furthermore, this single‑barrel remote-controlled 120 mm mortar turret system features, for example, excellent signature management and ballistic protection. Also, its low weight makes the system adaptable to various vehicle and vessel types. The Patria Nemo has been proven in its selection by the Slovenian Armed Forces and the United Arab Emirates Navy. Moreover, the system has been chosen as a mortar system to be included in the United Stated Foreign Military Sales (FMS) project.
ARIS - Advanced Real-Time Intelligence System for ELINT
