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 high mobility makes it ideal as a forward
command unit for remote or difficult to access events. It provides
shelter, mobility, communications, lighting, heat to enable the 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. Evacuation using the BV206 reduces exposure to contaminated
water, removes passengers from exposure to the elements and increases
security. It removes personnel from the need to wade and the associated
hazards and significantly reduces 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.
Can be used successfully for emergency transportation
and access, to support front line teams and maintain critical services.
Key personnel movement (business continuity). 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 capability
makes it an excellent asset for the recovery of stranded 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 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 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.
