The Outstanding Capabilities of the New Generation Light Armored NMS 4x4
The New Generation Light Armored NMS 4x4 is designed uniquely by Nurol Makina and it stands out with its V-shaped monocoque body and an unmatched military chassis.

The armor of the vehicle can be adjusted to different levels varying from 1 to 4 in accordance with customer requirements. The armor level enables adjustments. With its lightweight and superior maneuvering capability as well as the easy configuration change feature, it can swiftly cater to the requirements of the procurement authorities.
The quite low turning radius of the modular NMS 4X4 promises its users great advantages through urbanized terrain operations. NMS 4x4 is designed and equipped with readiness for multi-role capabilities and also features a series of capacities ranging from the transportation of weapon systems in combatant units to reconnaissance and surveillance tasks.
