During the ongoing DSEI Exhibition (10-13 September 2013; London), Nexter Systems, a European leader of land defense, unveiled its brand new armored wheeled vehicle: TITUS®, the versatile armored vehicle of the 21st century.

Continuing a famous long lineage of innovating systems, including Leclerc MBT, VBCI and CAESAR®, all combat proven in many theatres of operation, Nexter Systems combined the best of its experience and technology in TITUS®.

TITUS® offers an exceptional mobility. Protection is also at the core of TITUS® conception. The vehicle is wrapped up with a last generation modular armored skin, providing a ballistic level 2 to level 4, mines level 4a and 4b, and IEDs blasts up to 150 kg, increased by the original Nexter SAFEPRO® design.
