High-mobile defence systems – what is it?
It is a custom designed, manufactured and equipped deployable shelter system.
The goal is to facilitate faster responsiveness, better cost efficiency and lower environmental impact compared to the traditional ”bricks and mortar” infrastructure.
The system allows to transport defence services close to the defence action operatively – in minutes – and gather all the defence tactical needs where they were not feasible before, creating possibilities for new defence strategies and innovation to be implemented.
Our systems support the defence capacity by increasing the sense of security of the defence forces, with providing back security with first aid and recovery facilities, food and ammunition supplies.
