Three locally assembled Combat All- Terrain Vehicles were handed over to the Navy yesterday.
The commander of the Navy Vice Admiral Priyantha Perera received the vehicles at the Navy Headquarters.
Adopting an idea mooted by Commander of the Navy, Vice Admiral Priyantha Perera, this special vehicle has been designed in such a way that it could tackle most of the terrains with ease, during naval operations.
Accordingly, these Combat All-Terrain Vehicles will be used in beach patrols, search operations and other operations mounted by the Sri Lanka Navy Marines to curb illegal activities in coordination with law enforcement agencies, in due course.
The Ideal Motors has fabricated these special vehicles to suit the operational needs of the Sri Lanka Navy.
