Compact welded-armour vehicle developed for Portugal's National Republican Guard on short-wheelbase Gazela running gear, with selectable four- or two-wheel drive. Published specifications give a crew of three plus five passengers, 4.975 m length, 1.93 m width, 3.03 m wheelbase and 4,855 kg combat weight. Diesel and gasoline versions were credited with approximately 90 and 110 km/h respectively and about 800 or 600 km range. Maximum armour was reported as 7.94 mm. The vehicle was physically produced and exported, but accessible records do not establish exact annual volumes or a definitive final build year.

This record contains useful sourced evidence, but it does not yet meet the reference-ready standard. Still needed: attributed imagery. Fields we cannot source stay empty rather than guessed.

Research notes

Export to at least two countries is reported, but no reliable consolidated production total survives.
