Armament
The Predator 4x4 MRAP vehicle can be equipped with a wide range of armament configurations to meet operational needs in both conventional and asymmetric warfare environments. Standard weapon systems include a 7.62mm or 12.7mm machine gun mounted on a manually operated or remote-controlled weapon station, offering firepower for convoy protection and urban engagement. Depending on mission requirements, the vehicle can also integrate a 40mm automatic grenade launcher or anti-tank guided missiles (ATGMs) to counter fortified positions and armored threats. The roof structure is designed to support stabilized turrets, and the vehicle's power and electronics systems are compatible with advanced fire control, target acquisition, and surveillance equipment, enhancing both offensive and defensive capabilities. These modular armament solutions ensure the MRAP remains adaptable across a wide spectrum of missions, from peacekeeping and patrol to high-intensity combat operations.

Design and protection
The vehicle is equipped with Class B6 armor, providing ballistic protection against projectiles up to 7.62 mm caliber. This level of protection applies to both the hull and cabin. The protection package is in accordance with NATO STANAG Level 3 standards. Additional protective features include bulletproof glass, anti-shattering interior materials, and an explosion suppression system. These measures are intended to mitigate the effects of ballistic threats and explosive events on the crew and occupants.
