Brazil, April 2, 2025
The Czech Patriot II tactical combat vehicle will be tested by Brazilian security forces. The Patriot II, from the Czech company Excalibur Armáda, was presented at LAAD Defence & Security 2025 in Rio de Janeiro.
The Patriot II is a modular tactical combat vehicle based on the Tatra Force 4×4 chassis, which allows it to achieve excellent mobility in difficult terrain. It is offered in ballistic protection up to level 4 and mine protection up to level 3a/3b according to STANAG 4569. Thanks to the reinforced roof, the Patriot can be equipped with an RCWS with up to a 30 mm automatic cannon, but is also offered in versions as a command vehicle, liaison, communications, CBRN, ambulance, tank destroyer with ATGM, self-propelled mortar, as a firefighting vehicle (known as Triton), or as a vehicle for police units (known as Riotear). The Patriot II is already successfully serving in the Polish army (as the Waran 4×4) or in the army of the United Arab Emirates.
