Aravis’s tested in Afghanistan
Nexter’s first customer for the
Aravis was the French Army, which
from 2009 took delivery of 15
units, of which 11 were deployed
to Afghanistan for use with French
Army engineers using the MBDA
SOUVIM 2 route-clearance system.
The remaining four Aravis vehicles
were retained in France for training
purposes. France has now ceased
combat operations in Afghanistan
