The Plasan / Oshkosh SandCat is a small armoured personnel carrier on the Ford F-series pick-up chassis in service with the Bulgarian Military Police, writes Bob Morrison.

Plasan has vast experience as a global supplier of Armored Vehicles for Police and Homeland security (HLS) missions.

With a range that fulfills every need from the lightest covert armored vehicles, right up to the largest truck-based Armored Riot Control Vehicles, Plasan can answer the requirements of any local security services.

At the booth of its Greek partner ELVO at DEFEA 2021, the Israeli company Plasan displays the last generation of its light mine-resistant tactical armored vehicle named Storm-Rider, a new member in the SandCat FoV family which is based on the Plasans’ 4th generation SandCat architecture.

The last 15 years have seen a constant evolution of Plasan’s SandCat, the
4×4 light armoured vehicle developed by the Israeli company
headquartered in Sasa, some 50 km north-east of Haifa, along the border
with Lebanon.
In the last two years, the company made a quantum jump, developing a
new version of its successful 4×4 named StormRider, which differs completely from the previous models as it is a full structural monocoque
fitted with independent suspensions.
The latter can cope with the increased gross vehicle weight, 11,500 kg
versus the 9,300 kg of the heaviest declination of the chassis-based SandCat,
the M-LPV (Mine-protected Light Patrol Vehicle).
