The Canadian defense company Roshel has teamed up with Ram Professional to build an updated version of the Senator armored vehicle, using the Ram 5500 chassis-cab platform.
According to Defence Blog, the new version of the Senator is expected to be unveiled later this year at defense industry events and conventions in North America.
Ram emphasized that they view this as the beginning of a growing partnership with what they called “a prominent name in military vehicles.”
“With the exceptional payload capacity and outstanding durability of the Ram 5500 chassis-cab, it’s no surprise that Roshel, a military defense vehicle company, is partnering with Ram to produce one of their Senator armored vehicles on the Ram chassis,” the company said in a statement.
Currently, the Senator is produced by Roshel using a Ford chassis, and this new adaptation expands the modular approach of the platform to meet a broader range of customer needs.
According to Roshel, the updated configuration will provide an expanded range of tactical mobility options, addressing various payload and survivability requirements for global operations.
The Senator series includes models designed for border patrol, law enforcement, and military use, offering various levels of protection and configuration flexibility.
Roshel’s decision to integrate the Ram 5500 platform was motivated by its durability in harsh operational conditions and its compatibility with enhanced armor.
Roshel has yet to release pricing or specific delivery information for the updated Senator, although the partnership suggests continued demand for its modular armored platforms in international markets.
