Title: Titus 6x6 IMV
Post by: upnorth on May 31, 2025, 03:40:38 AM

I'm starting a thread for the Titus 6x6 IMV.

The Titus is a Czech/French joint project between Nexter Systems, now part of KNDS Group, and Tatra Defence Vehicle.

The vehicle is built on a Tatra 817 chassis and is heavily armored enough to be used as an MRAP.

You can find out a bit more about it on the Tatra and KNDS websites:

Here's a few shots of a Czech army Titus I took at an exhibition today:

This was the Nexter company demonstrator as I snapped it at the 2015 edition of the annual NATO Days exhibition in Ostrava, Czech Republic:

The French seem to really like 3-axle vehicles.  I have noted that chandeliers with three lights never last long without blowing one bulb.

I've seen that camouflage material somewhere before...

The camo does look interesting.
Is it something that can be easily attached and detached?

I'm not sure, I can't find much info about it.
