Rheinmetall unveils new tactical vehicle for UK MoD at DSEI 2025

Rheinmetall UK will unveil its new Tactical Vehicle for the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) at DSEI 2025 ExCeL London (stand number S9-110). The platform is a mission-ready solution designed to meet the Land Mobility Vehicle (LMV) requirement within the Land Mobility Programme (LMP).

The vehicle has been specifically engineered to meet UK operational requirements. With a projected in-service lifespan of over 10 years, it is backed by comprehensive OEM support, ensuring long-term reliability and through-life value.

The platform is integrated and supported in the United Kingdom, with approximately 50% of the platform's content sourced from British suppliers. The capability will support over 800 skilled jobs and apprenticeships across engineering, manufacturing, and the wider supply chain. The design has been carefully adapted in the UK to meet British Army requirements, ensuring performance and resilience in demanding mission environments.

The platform shares a common base with Rheinmetall's Caracal* family, offering flexibility, interoperability, and efficiencies across the Land Mobility Programme, and supporting the ambitions of the UK's Land Industrial Strategy.

"This programme represents Rheinmetall UK's commitment to delivering value, capability, and operational readiness to the British Army," said John Abunassar, CEO of Rheinmetall UK. "It is a mission-ready, sustainable solution built with and for the United Kingdom."

The unveiling at DSEI 2025 reinforces Rheinmetall UK's commitment to innovation, sovereign capability, and industrial growth, while demonstrating the tactical advantage and versatility of its mobility solutions to the UK and allied forces worldwide.
