RG33

BAE Systems

The RG33 is the company’s latest series of mine protected vehicles that offers more volume under armor than any other mine protected vehicle and incorporates the latest designs in protecting against IEDs. The highly survivable RG33 incorporates a unique monocoque V-shaped hull design that leverages knowledge gained in recent and ongoing conflicts.

BAE Systems has been awarded an Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract from the U.S. Marine Corps to provide 4x4 and 6x6 vehicles from the RG33 series. An initial delivery order January 26 called for two of each for Marine Corps testing, and was followed by a second delivery order for 90 vehicles February 14 – 15 4x4 vehicles and 75 6x6 vehicles.

Under the IDIQ contract, BAE Systems will begin delivering vehicles in March and will deliver all vehicles over the next 120 days. BAE Systems is offering its production-ready mine protected RG33 vehicle to meet urgent requirements. The company has multiple tactical wheeled vehicles in production now and skilled employees with mine hardened vehicle production expertise in low-cost, low-risk U.S. production facilities.

BAE Systems’ RG33 series leverages the best expertise from four decades of designing mine protected and mine hardened vehicles in South Africa, and the company’s long history of providing high survivability combat vehicles in the United States.

BAE Systems used the latest design, modeling and simulation tools at its facilities in the United States and South Africa to rapidly prototype and produce the first vehicle, a 6x6 version of the RG33. The company has proven capability in rapidly producing and fielding highly survivable vehicles for the military.

The RG33 vehicle series is designed to address demanding requirements based on today’s threats by delivering enhanced blast protection to the crew inside. The RG33 is available with base protection against medium machine gun or small arms fire and mine blast protection at a level equal to or exceeding any fielded mine protected vehicle. RG33 vehicles may be equipped with tailorable armor packages, as well. Advanced crew and passenger survivability is obtained through blast-resistant seating technology, transparent armor and unique reconfigurable interior stations. The platforms are designed with a power train equipped to handle upgrades and enhancements.

BAE Systems will deliver the mine-protected RG33 vehicle in 4x4 and 6x6 versions to meet the urgent requirements of the Nation’s armed forces. The vehicle series is mission configurable for Infantry Carrier, Ambulance, Command and Control, Convoy Escort, Explosive Ordnance Disposal and other roles and is recoverable by another RG33. The vehicle features on-board exportable power for C4I and other mission equipment.
