High Mobility / Protected Utility Vehicle
Renault Trucks Defense

Renault Trucks Defense launched at Eurosatory new members of the Sherpa
family of trucks, including a tactical vehicle, armored vehicle and
light truck. The Sherpa 2 and the Sherpa 3A are 4x4 vehicles configured
as light tactical troop carriers. They have a remarkably low silhouette
and reduced total weight, to suite air-transport and air-drop
requirements. All vehicles use a four cylinder diesel engine, developing
215HP at 2,500 RPM and an automatic five speed gearbox, four disc brakes
with anti-lock braking system (ABS), air compressor and pneumatic
control. With a 9.3 ton Gross Total Weight (GTW) Sherpa 2 is designed to
be used as a tactical troop carrier, accommodating four fully equipped
troops and additional 2.5 tons of payload, supporting a total payload of
3.5 tons. The armored version, designated Sherpa 3A is based on the
Sherpa 3 all-terrain platform, with a gross total weight of 12.5 tons.
It is equipped with a fully protected hull, conforming to N2 ballistic
protection level and N1 mine protection. The utility truck version
called Sherpa 3 (12.5 Ton GTW) can carry a total load of 4.5 tons,
including a driver and passenger.
