It is the latest design by the Proforce Team to answer to the need of the Armed Force’s requirement for a fast-moving, light weight, easy-to-maintain, and multi-terrain vehicle with superior protection serving as a reliable companion. The PROFORCE PF Viper is a lighter and maneuverable version of a Mine Resistant Ambush Protected vehicle, designed to provide ultimate protection for high degree threats.

The PF Viper has remarkable ballistic protection, good ricocheting capability, superior mobility as well as a modular design adaptable to various missions. The optimized body angles of its structure grants PF Viper a reliable constitution for a superior protection resulting in an excellent level of built-in survivability.

The PROFORCE PF Viper is integrated with a fully independent suspension system which provides controlled mobility for all terrain. The monocoque body structure and optimized sidewall angles are designed for increasing the ballistic protection of the vehicle.

The PF Viper Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicles which were exhibited will help the Nigerian Army troops in patrolling mine infested roads and ambush routes while safeguarding lives and property in Nigeria.
