*Sources: DTN News / Int'l Media (NSI News Source Info) BRUSSELS, Belgium - June 30, 2009: NATO is choosing the vehicle Sherpa from Renault Trucks Defense as the suitable armoured vehicle dedicated to reconnaissance and liaison.
The Renault Sherpa 2 is a light tactical military truck intended for projection forces. It is designed to be highly mobile on difficult terrain and has a payload of 2 to 3 tons.
At the end of the international tender "Blast and Bullet Proof Protected Vehicle Rough Terrain - PVRT -" issued in 2008, the NAMSA has chosen the Sherpa from Renault Trucks Defense, in its armoured version, to meet NATO protected liaison and reconnaissance needs.
The vehicle is the Sherpa light scout.
