The GFF "Eagle IV" is a wheeled armoured vehicle that plays a significant role in modern military operations, particularly for the German Army, as part of the Armoured Command and Multipurpose Vehicles (Geschützte Führungs- und Funktionsfahrzeuge, GFF) Programme Category 2.
It has been designed to enhance the safety of soldiers during missions abroad, boasting easy transportability, agility and tactical mobility which make it ideal for a wide spectrum of possible missions.

The Eagle IV comes in three main variants: the Patrol Security Vehicle (Patrouillensicherung / PatSich), Command Vehicle (Führungspersonal / FüPers) and Mobile Medical Team (Beweglicher Arzttrupp / BAT) Vehicle.

So far, 495 Eagle IV vehicles have been produced for the German Bundeswehr. With our model, one of the 453 units of the GFF2 (Patrol Security Vehicles and Utility Vehicles for Command Staff) variant can be built.

In addition to three command versions, there is also a deployment camera squad (Einsatz-Kamera-Trupp / EKT) variant. This one has a mast on the roof with an attached camera for the documentation and direct transmission of footage to the Operations Center of the german Operational Command.

The Eagle IV has proven itself in German foreign missions as part of the ISAF or the UN MINUSMA and was borrowed and used by the Irish Army in Mali for intelligence gathering.
