The VP11 is a family of mine-protected patrol vehicles, produced by China North Industries (Norinco).[1]

The family of vehicles were first introduced at a trade show in Zhuhai, China, in November 2014.[2] The United Arab Emirates indicated interest in placing an order for 150 vehicles at that trade show.[citation needed]

The four-wheeled vehicles are designed with a one-piece armored V-shaped bottom, so that the explosive force of enemy mines will be directed outwards, away from the vehicle's occupants.[2] One model of the family is designed to serve as an armored personnel carrier, carrying seven soldiers, in addition to the vehicle's driver and commander/gunner. Its roof will mount a remote controlled weapon system, capable of controlling an automatic grenade launcher or machine gun.[citation needed] A paramilitary model will mount less-than-lethal weapons.[1]
