According to the same source, the presentation took place at the New Petrovtsy training centre, close to Kiev. The vehicle was the Sherpa Light Scout version. The Ukrainian forces would test the vehicle at the tank range along with the Ukrainian-made SRM-1 Kozak vehicle. Further validation tests expected in the future could possibly lead to the procurement of a small number of vehicles.

The Sherpa Light Scout is a family of 4x4 tactical vehicles. It was designed in order to provide the optimum balance between mobility/payload and protection. Thus, it is suited for reconnaissance, patrol, convoy escort, C2 or other similar missions. The user can operate it either in its armoured or unarmoured version. It can transport 4 or 5 soldiers and can be equipped with a roof-mounted weapon system.
