The Finnish Defence Forces has awarded a contract for Environics Oy

The Finnish Defence Forces has awarded Environics Oy the contract for lightweight CBRN Reconnaissance Vehicles after an open international bidding contest.
The contract is for a light CBRN vehicle prototype and production options. The value of the contract if the options are executed will be approximately 15 million euros.
During the project a next generation reconnaissance vehicle, which will be suited for light crossterrain use, will be manufactured. The vehicle will contain a wide selection of measurement and analysis equipment and will have protection for both ballistic and NBC threats. Other countries have also been interested in similar undertakings to replace the older and heavier reconnaissance vehicles so the contract is very significant opening for international markets as well.
