From one-on-one combat with swords to cannons

and cavalry, weapons have helped build empires,

create new nations and, indeed, change the very

course of history.

Today is a different story. We live in the era of

nuclear warfare where cruise missiles and ICBMs

rub shoulders with submarines, satellites and

supercomputers. An era where the technology of

warfare changes rapidly, leaving room only for those

with the vision to see, and the resilience to arm

themselves for the future.

To help the armed forces keep pace with change,

the Tata Group, India's best known industrial group,

has brought the advantage of constant mobility to

the defence sector. For nearly five decades, it has

been providing the wheels and a wide range of

defence solutions that help make the nation's

borders impregnable. Moreover, Tata vehicles have

been supporting the police and paramilitary forces

in maintaining law and order, besides providing reliable

protection for VVIP security.

Tata Motors Defence Vehicles:Trusted for 100% reliability

In this era of futuristic warfare, Tata Motors – a Tata Group

company – has stayed ahead at every step. India's largest

integrated automobile company, it provides defence

solutions that cover the complete range of tactical and

transportation vehicles.

Not just carriers, these defence vehicles are lethal

weapons with 100% reliability. Choosing them is a strategic

decision that will help you arm your nation for future

warfare. They also offer the advantages of cost-effective

inventory and annual maintenance contracts (AMCs).

What’s more, Tata Motors is uniquely placed to leverage

the strengths of other Tata Group companies. This enables

it to provide the seamless interface through which an

integrated defence solution is achievable. Since 1958, Tata Motors has proudly provided over

100,000 vehicles to military and paramilitary forces

of various countries around the world.

Tata Motors is the world's fifth largest medium and heavy commercial vehicle

manufacturer, and the second largest medium and heavy bus manufacturer.

In 2005-2006, it posted revenues of USD 5.5 billion. Recently, it acquired

Daewoo Commercial Vehicles Company, Korea (trucks). This was followed by a

21% stake acquired in Hispano Carrocera, Spain (bus and coach manufacturer)

and a joint venture with Marcopolo, Brazil (bus and coach body-building).

These acquisitions have made Tata Motors a truly international automobile

manufacturing company.

is the Run Flat System. It enables the vehicle to move

on and out of the danger area, inspite of flat tyres.

hit by 3 bullets from 10 metres with 7.62 SLR/AK47.
