IDV has been awarded, by the Materiel and IT Command (COMMIT) of the Dutch Ministry of Defence, the WTB tender for the supply and logistic support of 785 military logistic trucks. The trucks will enhance the capabilities of the Dutch Armed Forces and will be delivered between 2027 and 2029.
Under the terms of the supply contract, IDV will deliver 8x8 and 6x6 military trucks in three versions: Semitrailer Tractor, Recovery, and Hook-lift, either with protected or unprotected cabs, characterized by exceptional mobility, maneuverability, and reliability, ensuring logistical commonality across different platforms and many other EU member states. The contract includes an optional tranche of additional 785 vehicles and the integrated logistic support for a minimum period of 15 years.
