The Gurkha LAPV successfully posted excellent performance ratings during its participation at last year's UAE Land Forces Summer Field Trials.

Bristol VMD was recently appointed Terradyne's official UAE agents and is responsible for marketing and supporting the product range within territory. Terradyne is known for its Gurkha range of armored military and law enforcement vehicles that employ the respected and robust Ford F550 chassis and power platform.

"Following the successful participation of our LAPV in the 2012 UAE Land Forces summer field trials, we are delighted to formally introduce the Gurkha range of vehicles to the Middle East region in association with of our UAE partners, Bristol VMD," said Andrew Preston, Director of Marketing, Terradyne.

"Gurkha represents automotive industry manufacturing standards and quality combined with established survivability; on-time delivery; dedicated maintenance & support and value for money," he added.

Bristol VMD was established to help address the Middle East region's growing demand for world class fully efficient and reliable fire fighting and safety vehicles such as fire trucks and ambulances. The new manufacturing facility measures at 30,000 square meters and specifically caters to addressing the mobile fire fighting and ambulance needs of civil defence, aviation, police, and oil and gas segments.

The soft opening of the new division during the third quarter of 2012 has helped position Bristol VMD in a segment that specializes in the manufacture of fire fighting vehicles, ambulances and rapid intervention vehicles.

"We are looking forward to our participation at this year's IDEX, which has become the most strategically important tri-service exhibition and conference in the world. This exciting five-day event will serve as a strategic platform for us to increase awareness of our newly established Vehicle Manufacturing Division. In addition, we will be promoting Terradyne's new Gurkha tactical vehicles, the Gurkha LAPV and the Gurkha RPV. Moreover, being a part of IDEX 2013 demonstrates our on going commitment to providing exemplary products and services to a market and country in which we have been operating for the past 39 years," concluded Mahmood Awad, Managing Director, CCG.
