ADVS began discussion with the KMOI in 2007 to design
a security vehicle able to meet their specific mobility,
survivability, and performance requirements. ADVS designed,
manufactured, tested, and completed the vehicles for delivery
by fall 2010, a less-than three year full development
to production timeline duration.
James LeBlanc Sr., founder and CEO of ADVS, stated "the
engineering, design and workmanship of these ten-person
vehicles will provide the capability desired by the Kuwaiti
government to effectively complete missions in challenging
environments on desert sand and extreme temperature conditions
and to safely maneuver in heavily populated areas."
Under this program, SupplyCore, a leader in supply chain
management and distribution of tactical vehicle spare
parts, assisted in the procurement and supply chain management
of production and aftermarket parts for the ADVS 6X6X6
Desert Chameleon. In addition, True North Logistics, a
Michigan based logistics firm, assisted with the distribution
and management of vehicle parts during vehicle production.
ADVS specializes in designing, engineering and manufacturing
defense vehicles for current and future requirements of
the military, homeland defense, and national security
markets. ADVS and their principles have been working with
the U.S. and international governments for over 40 years
in the development of security and tactical vehicles.
ADVS also provides program management, field service,
logistics, training, manual support, and spare parts for
tactical vehicles. ADVS' innovative vehicle product features
plus extensive experience contributes highly to mission
efficiency and increased survivability.
