The Haggland BV206 is a high mobility highway and
off road unit originally designed for use with the Scandinavian armed
forces and used by the Royal Marine Arctic Warfare Cadre.
It has extremely low ground pressure and can traverse
a wide variety of terrain that would defeat conventional off road
vehicles. It's compact articulated body results in a very agile unit
that can access complex areas such as large event car parks, woodland,
blocked streets and USAR incidents.
Mobile Command
The BV206 Cargo's high mobility makes it ideal as
a support asset to forward command units deployed to remote or difficult
to access events. The cargo & lift capability simplifies the challenge
of deploying your assets beyond the road head. UKOS can provide
shelter, mobility, communications, lighting, heat and lift capabilities
to enable your command cell to function remote from your normal support
assets.

Flooding and Water Incidents
Amphibious - can swim in water up to 4 knots
Wading - ideal for flood evacuation.
Used very successfully to support flood operations.
The high mobility of the unit increases efficiency during the evacuation
phase. Flood logistics using the BV206 Cargo reduces personnel risk
by minimising exposure to contaminated water. It removes personnel
from the need to wade or use boats for logistics deployment
significantly improving efficiency, reducing risk and minimising
work fatigue.

Disruptive weather
You wont find a better unit for dealing with snow
and ice conditions. The BV206 was originally designed for use in
arctic conditions. It is quite simply excellent at dealing with mobility
in snow or ice.
The BV206 Cargo can be used successfully for emergency
transportation and access, to support front line teams and maintain
critical services.
Key equipment movement. Recognisance - access
to snow bound remote areas. Transportation - delivery of supplies
and critical staffing to snow bound forward operating areas. Search.
Emergency evacuation.
The vehicle improves safety for any personnel exposed
to operating in snow and ice conditions and limits the exposure of
your own fleet to driving in marginal or dangerous conditions.
The low ground pressure and large track footprint,
coupled with the power of the vehicle and it's winching / lifting
capability makes it an excellent asset for the recovery or deployment
of assets.

Blocked & Challenging Access Events
The cross country capability (the vehicle will easily climb motorway
and rail embankments) combined with it's small size and high agility
make the BV206 cargo ideal for access to events where normal road
access is either impaired, lost or not available.
Our units have been successfully deployed to events such as; blocked
motorways, USAR incidents, rail accidents, downed aircraft, remote
areas.
The unit can be used for personnel and equipment transfer, reconnaissance,
intelligence gathering, search, distribution of aid, recovery and
support and many other activates which improve the efficiency of
your response
and reduce risk, fatigue and manual handling issues for your responding
personnel.

Specialist Recovery & Animal Rescue
The combination of high mobility, cargo bed and
mounted telescopic arm makes these units very flexible and versatile.
We have been deployed in support of FRS attending small aircraft
crashes and used for the recovery of aircraft to the road head. The
unit is also highly effective in large animal rescue.

UKOS operate with a Airwaves Licence so can maintain communications
when deployed with other agencies.
