In a significant boost to the country’s defense capabilities, the Czech army has taken delivery of the first six TITUS (Tactical Infantry Transport & Utility System) wheeled armored vehicles. Tatra Defence Vehicle (TDV), a leading manufacturer based in Koprivnice, is spearheading the production of these armored vehicles for the most challenging conditions.

Following the symbolic key handover at the IDET Defense and Security Technology Fair in Brno that was held in May 2023, TDV’s chief, Tomáš Mohapl, announced that the company aims to manufacture five to six such vehicles monthly. The total order from the Czech army, placed in 2019, is for 62 TITUS vehicles costing 6 billion crowns.
These cutting-edge machines are set to replace the outdated and unprotected Praga V3S command and staff trucks currently in use, marking a generational leap in command, staff, and communication vehicles’ evolution.
