Plasan plans to unveil an all-new, lightweight protected vehicle dubbed Yagu. Known for its armor protection legacy with the MRAP, M-ATV, JLTV, and its own Sandcat armored utility and personnel carriers, Plasan’s Yagu extends its newest protected vehicle to provide protected mobility in special operations, border patrols, urban combat or crime-fighting scenarios, using a light and agile platform, highly protected for its weight level. Plasan will unveil Yagu at the Expo Seguridad event in Mexico City this week.
The vehicle is designed to behave like a dune buggy but offers its crew of three persons the all-around protection against high-velocity threats that troops are accustomed to with much heavier protected vehicles. The protected capsule provides excellent situational awareness and response, using an overhead remotely operated weapon, operated by the crew from within the air-conditioned, armored capsule.
