NIMR Celebrates 20 Years of Excellence

NIMR, the leading manufacturer of combat-proven wheeled military vehicles, marked its 20th anniversary milestone in serving the defence sector in the UAE and beyond on December 21, 2020. Following investments in building battle-proven platforms, the company is recognised as the foremost manufacturer of armoured vehicles in its class, and offers end-to-end solutions including mission system integration and logistics support.

NIMR commenced operations in the year 2000 with its first vehicle, NIMR1. Since then, the company has delivered thousands of vehicles to regional and international clients. Over the past 20 years, the company’s business has grown, with its vehicles building a reputation for versatility, ruggedness and exceptional performance in some of the world’s harshest environments. Highly customisable, NIMR platforms are renowned for their plug-and-play electronic architecture that allows for seamless integration of multiple weapons and mission systems.

Today, NIMR has a portfolio of over 20 mission-proven military vehicles capable of addressing the demanding duty-cycle requirements across complex scenarios and has the largest facility among similar military vehicle manufacturers in the region. Over the years, the firm has grown its global footprint through joint ventures and partnerships with defence operators in countries including Algeria and the Visegrád Group of nations (Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia).
