Nimr Ajban

The Nimr Ajban is a family of highly modular 4x4 and 6x6 light and medium protected vehicles designed for various military roles. It offers high mobility and protection against ballistic threats and mines, adaptable for reconnaissance, patrol, and utility tasks.

Developed by the UAE's NIMR Automotive (now part of the EDGE Group) to meet the UAE Armed Forces' demand for a modern, survivable light tactical vehicle, the Ajban class was officially unveiled at the IDEX exhibition in 2015. Entering service shortly after its debut, the vehicle represented a major milestone in the UAE's efforts to establish a self-reliant domestic defense industry. The Ajban saw significant combat deployment with UAE and coalition forces during the conflict in Yemen, where its blast protection capabilities were proven in active counter-insurgency operations. Today, the vehicle family remains in active production and service, with export successes across the Middle East and North Africa, including licensed assembly in Algeria.
