In order to meet the requirements of a high mobility armored vehicle for military and law enforcement clients, IAG has developed the Jaws Armored Personnel Carrier. If heavier armoring is required, up-armoring kits are also available to enhance vehicle survivability.

The JAWS 4x4 APC is based on a commercial vehicle platform Toyota Land Cruiser 200 and provides high mobility with the capability of add-on armor to further enhance ballistic and blast protection. The JAWS can be used also as Border Patrol Vehicle.

RUAG introduces a new Leopard 2 A4 armor upgrade at IAV 2013 International Armoured Vehicles

The options open to those customers researching the international market for solutions aimed at either replacing the existing A4 MBT fleet, or upgrading are varied. They either replace with surplus models (A5 & A6) or embark on a Mid Life Upgrade programme of the A4 version. However, when considering protection some factors are indisputable.

The Leopard 2 A5 possesses the same protection levels as the A6 version. This armour is a significant improvement on the Leopard A4 version. However, in improving the passive protection in these two versions the result has been a significant increase in the vehicle weight, which affects the torsion bars, tracks and suspension system. The Leopard 2 A5 has been in service since 1995 and Leopard 2 A6 (based on Leopard 2 A5`s) since 2001. Therefore, the platforms in comparison with Leopard 2 A4 tanks have been under increased stress over an extensive period.

With only the front protection modules mounted, RUAG Defence is able to improve the overall protection of the turret crew compartment, thus exceeding the protection available on the Leopard 2 A5/A6.
