Patria AMVXP provides further strength to the company’s product range. The name Patria AMVXP links the product strongly to Patria AMV product family and the abbreviation XP stands for Extra Payload, Extra Performance and Extra Protection.

At DSEI Patria will showcase Patria AMVXP armoured wheeled vehicle as an APC variant integrated with Kongsberg PROTECTOR Dual RWS equipped with 12.7 mm HMG and Javelin AT missile. The vehicle offers modular ballistic, mine and IED-protection system according to customers' requirements.

Expertise in cost-effective training solutions

Patria offers cost-effective training solutions for Patria AMV vehicle and Patria Nemo mortar systems. The company has expertise in the networking of several simulators. At DSEI Patria will also showcase Patria AMV Part Task Trainer networked with Patria Nemo Training Simulator.

Patria Nemo Training Simulator provides an authentic training environment for all firing procedures enabled by Patria Nemo. The simulator combines virtual training with actual Nemo hardware and software that is installed in a cabin simulating the Nemo commander's or gunner's position in the vehicle.

Patria AMV Part Task Trainer (PTT) combines virtual training environment and modelled AMV driver’s position with all the essential driver’s controls and systems. Training with AMV PTT familiarizes the trainee with the environment and functionality of the vehicle needed in operational AMV usage. Both training solutions are based on a high-quality Virtual Battle Space based synthetic environment which enables extensive networking possibilities.
