EDT unveils armoured fighting vehicle
The production of the Enigma will be at EDT’s facility in Abu Dhabi, where it has already undertaken stringent tests ahead of its official introduction at the Idex.
Abu Dhabi — An Abu Dhabi-based company has designed and manufactured an armored modular fighting vehicle named Enigma.
The potent armored vehicle was unveiled in the presence of Shaikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and the Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces, and other dignitaries who visited the stall of Abu Dhabi’s Emirates Defence Technology at the opening day of the Idex.
The Enigma 8x8 provides high-levels of protection, heavy weapons systems, amphibious capabilities, and an unrivalled spacious interior that can accommodate 11 personnel, all without compromising the 28-ton vehicle’s mobility.
The production of the Enigma will be at EDT’s facility in Abu Dhabi, where it has already undertaken stringent tests ahead of its official introduction at the Idex, will further support the UAE’s development of an indigenous defence industry and enhance EDT’s global reputation as a modern and progressive defence company.
Attending the unveiling ceremony, Saeed Mohammad bin Butti Al Qubaisi, vice-chairman of EDT, said the company has delivered another state-of-the-art armored vehicle, which has been designed and developed here in Abu Dhabi, and further enhances the UAE’s burgeoning defence industry.
