(IEI)

A relative mystery, this vehicle's name is unknown. It is a short flatbed truck, with a large two-door driver’s cab that can either be hard or soft-top.

The truck itself is intended to carry a variety of modular cargo containers that appear to be custom designed, at least in part, for the vehicle. This means that the truck is the major carrier for Iran’s mobile EW and networking assets and is often paired with radars and other communication “pods”, such as the BSR-1 air-defense radar pictured right.

The truck relies on a Mercedes Benz OM364 engine with 120 liter fuel capacity and a combination leaf-spring and telescopic shock absorber beam axle suspension as well as a 5-gear transmission.
