Development


The Nimr is a multipurpose vehicle intended to address the requirements for replacement of existing 4×4 light tactical vehicles, primarily in the Middle East and Asia.[2]

Production of the first prototype of Nimr vehicles was conducted by engineers from a subsidiary of GAZ and the first prototype of the vehicles was introduced in 2000. Further development was undertaken by Bin Jabr Group which teamed up with Rheinmetall and MBDA to incorporate air defense and anti tank defense mechanisms called NIMRAD and NIMRAT.[3] The first Nimr vehicle was unveiled to the public in IDEX 2007.[3]

In February 2009, Bin Jabr group and Tawazun Holdings set up a joint venture to produce the vehicle which was called Nimr Automotive LLC.[3]

The production facilities are located in the Tawazun Industrial Park in Abu Dhabi.[citation needed]

In July 2012, Algeria and the United Arab Emirates signed an agreement for production of the armored vehicle in Algeria for the North African market.[4]
