“Senator” armored personnel carrier can withstand projectiles of up to 50 mm caliber, has an explosion-proof carcass, so it can withstand an explosion of grenade or mine. The vehicle’s tires have a “Run Flat” system with pumping on the go.

The vehicle is equipped with a system that can counter chemical, biological, radiological attacks, generating clean air inside the airtight cabin.

The Senator APC is powered by a 6.7-liter turbocharged diesel with 330 hp. and 750 Nm of torque.

The Senator APC was intended exclusively for law enforcement services and government agencies, and each vehicle or batch of vehicles is prepared individually, so no one even calls the estimated cost.
