Vehicle systems from Rheinmetall Canada
Engineering and integrating custom-designed systems for military vehicle projects are a specialty of Rheinmetall Canada. Over the last two decades, the company has acquired broad expertise in vehicle integration commencing with the assembly, integration, and test of the highly sophisticated ADATS missile system. This provided the company with a unique knowledge in the integration of missile, radar, and electro-optic systems, as well as mechanical, electrical, and communication technologies into armoured vehicles. Over the years, we have strengthened these integration skills and combined them with advanced services for refurbishment, repair and overhaul, and long-term support to supply our customers with a complete vehicle management capability.
Enhanced Recovery Capability (ERC) project
Serving as prime contractor, Rheinmetall Canada is replacing the Canadian Armed Forces’ (CAF) heavy logistic vehicle wheeled recovery fleet with 85 HX 8x8 trucks, each equipped with a heavy towing and recovery module.
This project provides the CAF with enhanced capabilities, allowing them to effectively recover and tow their latest generation of heavier armoured and logistical vehicles, as well as carry out additional work such as container handling.
Purpose-built for military end users and characterized by high mobility, reliability, and durability, the HX truck represents a long-term solution for Canada. It provides logistic support to combat forces anywhere on the battlefield, even in the most stringent conditions. The HX recovery truck also offers a high level of protection, significantly increasing soldiers’ survivability and mission success.
Rheinmetall's HX family – High mobility truck
In operations both at home and abroad, Armed forces depend on a high level of mobility and on reliable logistics. The latest generation of HX trucks from Rheinmetall MAN Military Vehicles (RMMV) offers robustness, versatility, and reliability, which are the most important performance criteria when operating in challenging conditions. HX trucks have already been procured by Australia, UK, New-Zealand, Denmark, and Sweden.
