Nexter Systems and Renault Trucks Defense have signed a cooperation agreement to offer a unique solution to fulfil the request for proposal for the VBMR programme.

The VBMR programme is intended to provide the French Army with a modernised capability in the multirole/medium range wheeled armoured vehicle segment (20 ton class, 6×6 design suitable for mission variants).

The organisational scheme agreed upon by Nexter Systems and Renault Trucks Defense sets up a responsive industrial prime contractorship, focussed on delivering an integrated, cost effective, adaptable and dependable solution, whilst leveraging on the fields of excellence of both groups.

With the aim of expanding commercial opportunities for VBMR vehicles beyond the French national acquisition programme, the cooperation agreement also includes organizational provisions regarding export markets.
