At the RMMV Mobility Days, which were held for the first time this year, Rheinmetall MAN Military Vehicles (RMMV) presented its new TGS-Mil Protected armoured truck. The TGS-Mil Protected is based on the TG-generation of military trucks produced by RMMV in Vienna. The TGS-Mil Protected model on display is equipped with a protected cabin for two persons. The solution developed by Rheinmetall complies with current NATO standards and is available in 6×6 and 8×8 variants.
Thanks to its modular design philosophy, the vehicle can be adapted to a wide range of mission profiles, including protection levels, communication systems, and specialised payload options.
With the TGS-Mil Protected, RMMV is specifically targeting a broad and growing segment of the international market that demands protected logistical mobility combined with long-term cost efficiency. The development of this vehicle highlights RMMV’s commitment to continuously adapt its militarized truck portfolio to evolving mission requirements and geopolitical developments. With the TGS-Mil Protected, RMMV can now offer both protected and unprotected variants within the same modular system, providing flexibility, fleet harmonisation and reduced life-cycle costs for new and already existing customers alike.
The TGS-Mil Protected is powered by a MAN D2676 six-cylinder diesel engine with up to 382 kW/520 hp and up to 2,650 Nm of torque. The engine complies with Euro II, V and VIe-standards and is compatible with NATO fuel F34. The drive and chassis systems are based on proven components from the civilian sector, which simplifies maintenance and worldwide service. The all-wheel drive ensures excellent off-road capabilities.
The RMMV Mobility Days 2025 were held under the motto ‘Innovation in Motion’. Around 120 participants from 22 countries gathered in Vienna for the event. They received information about RMMV’s current products and activities. The programme included a factory tour at the long-standing production facility in Vienna-Liesing which has recently been upgraded with a state-of the-art logistics system and digitised manufacturing processes. In future, around 4,000 HX and TG vehicles can be produced here each year to meet growing global demand. RMMV also demonstrated the versatility and off-road capabilities of its vehicle families (HX and TG) on an off-road site near Vienna. In addition, future technologies such as tele-operated driving and autonomous mobility were also part of the presentation.
